How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 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 61,554 vehicle and 111,190 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 ↗

Questions about M AND S INDUSTRIAL METAL FABRICATORS INC

What does M AND S INDUSTRIAL METAL FABRICATORS INC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for M AND S INDUSTRIAL METAL FABRICATORS INC (MC416806), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about M AND S INDUSTRIAL METAL FABRICATORS INC 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.

What should I verify before booking M AND S INDUSTRIAL METAL FABRICATORS INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 379980. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (260) 356-0300, not a number from an email or load board message.
