How risk signals workFacts from the FMCSA record that call for a closer look. They are not a finding of wrongdoing. Authority and insurance are last known from May 14, 2026.
- Liability insurance lapsed in the last 12 monthsAmtrust Insurance Company policy cancelled Jan 3, 2026; the next filing took effect Jan 7, 2026, 4 days later. During a lapse the company had no liability insurance on file with FMCSA; ask for a current certificate of insurance.
No cargo cover filed with FMCSA
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.
What to verify next
- Confirm authority and insurance on the official Motus record: our copy is the last known status from May 14, 2026. Safety record: SAFER.
- Call back on the number on file, (360) 907-2134, not a number from an email or load board.
- Check that the MC number you were given is MC1596526.
- Ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
Insurance on file
Liability (BI&PD) pays for injury and damage to other people and property; it does not cover the freight. Cargo insurance covers the freight. FMCSA only requires cargo filings from household goods carriers and freight forwarders, so most carriers file none: ask for a cargo certificate that fits your load. No cargo cover filed with FMCSA.

How these rates are calculated
Period: Oct 20, 2024 – Oct 20, 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 Missouri average covers 52,001 vehicle and 91,647 driver inspections of all Missouri-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
9 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 2 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.
Why is this different from the 11 violations above?
The inspections section's number counts every violation written on the inspection reports in our Oct 20, 2024 – Oct 20, 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.

"Share" is this company's mix of violations; the Missouri column is the mix across all Missouri-based carriers, so you can see which kinds of problems stand out. A high count partly reflects fleet size and how often trucks are inspected.

Questions about Bota Transportation Inc
What does Bota Transportation Inc's operating authority allow?
MC1596526: Common carrier (may haul regulated property for hire for the general public).
Which information about Bota Transportation Inc is old or missing?
Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. Insurance filings are from the same May 14, 2026 snapshot. 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 Bota Transportation Inc?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 4156383. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (360) 907-2134, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1596526, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
