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 SHINE LIGHT TRANSPORTATION LLC
What does SHINE LIGHT TRANSPORTATION LLC's operating authority allow?
FMCSA records show no active operating authority for SHINE LIGHT TRANSPORTATION LLC (MC1472941), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.
Which information about SHINE LIGHT TRANSPORTATION 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. The MCS-150 was last updated Oct 3, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.
What should I verify before booking SHINE LIGHT TRANSPORTATION LLC?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3954708. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (832) 933-5837, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1472941, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as certificate holder.
