How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 2026. Vehicle rate = vehicle inspections with a vehicle out-of-service order ÷ vehicle inspections (levels 1, 2, 5 and 6). Driver rate uses levels 1, 2, 3 and 6. The Indiana average covers 61,530 vehicle and 111,152 driver inspections of all Indiana-based carriers in this period. It mixes every type of operation, so compare with care; rates based on a handful of inspections say little. FMCSA's own SMS measures are weighted differently: SMS profile ↗ · SAFER snapshot ↗

Violations in FMCSA's SMS last 24 months

7 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 5 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.

Why is this different from the 9 violations above?

The inspections section's number counts every violation written on the inspection reports in our Oct 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 2026 window. The SMS count comes from FMCSA's own monthly SMS snapshot, which uses its own 24-month window and only the violations it scores. Both are FMCSA figures; they measure different things.

Questions about WOOD-MIZER LLC

What does WOOD-MIZER LLC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for WOOD-MIZER LLC (MC248353), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about WOOD-MIZER LLC is old or missing?

Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. No insurance filings were found in the public data.

What should I verify before booking WOOD-MIZER LLC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 345332. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (317) 271-1542, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC248353, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
