Green means the FMCSA record shows it. It does not confirm who you are talking to, or that a policy covers your specific load.

Not a live check. FMCSA has not published a Motus record for this carrier, so authority and insurance show the last known status from May 14, 2026. Confirm on Motus ↗ before booking.

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 Texas average covers 343,539 vehicle and 454,274 driver inspections of all Texas-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 ↗

Questions about J MENDEZ TRUCKING LLC

What does J MENDEZ TRUCKING LLC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for J MENDEZ TRUCKING LLC (MC1245955), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about J MENDEZ TRUCKING 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. There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe.

What should I verify before booking J MENDEZ TRUCKING LLC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3633838. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (305) 336-7497, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1245955, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as certificate holder.
