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 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 Florida average covers 69,903 vehicle and 132,326 driver inspections of all Florida-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 AMERICAN TOWING INC

What does AMERICAN TOWING INC's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for AMERICAN TOWING INC (MC352759), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about AMERICAN TOWING 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. 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 AMERICAN TOWING INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 441073. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (305) 558-8080, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC352759, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
