Facts 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. How this works
- Operating authority is inactive (last known)Without active authority the company may not haul or broker interstate freight for hire.
- Phone number shared with 20+ other companiesNormal for dispatch services and related companies, but confirm who you are talking to.
- Registration (MCS-150) last updated 11 years agoCarriers must update it every two years, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.
No cargo cover filed with FMCSA
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.

Roadside inspections Oct 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 2026
No roadside inspections in this period.
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 347,521 vehicle and 460,200 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 DALE SOTHMAN
What does DALE SOTHMAN's operating authority allow?
FMCSA records show no active operating authority for DALE SOTHMAN (MC372712), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.
Which information about DALE SOTHMAN 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 The MCS-150 was last updated Apr 20, 2015, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.
What should I verify before booking DALE SOTHMAN?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 843733. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (405) 283-0698, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC372712, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as certificate holder.
Other companies using (405) 283-0698
A shared number is common for related companies, dispatch services and family businesses. It is not proof of fraud, but it is worth knowing which company you are dealing with.
