Source: FMCSA Licensing & Insurance (L&I), public data. This shows the carrier’s federal insurance filings (BMC-91X liability, BMC-34 cargo) — the federally-required minimums on file for operating authority — not the carrier’s full commercial policy (its actual auto combined-single-limit, general liability, cargo, or workers’ comp, which appear on the carrier’s ACORD certificate of insurance). Always confirm current coverage with a COI from the carrier’s agent before making a vetting decision.

Recommendations

What’s driving each score, what to do about it, and where it could go.

Driver qualification / CDL / medical violations are the leading contributor to Driver Fitness

High impact

Estimated Driver Fitness percentile of 77% is at/over the 65% intervention line. Carriers with a BASIC in alert are prioritized for enforcement (warning letters, audits) and inspected more often — which tends to generate still more violations.

What’s contributing5 violations · 5 OOS (24 mo)

What to do
  • Run a credential-expiration tracker; keep DQ files complete and the medical card on the driver
  • Prioritize the out-of-service items — they carry the heaviest weight

A high share of violations are occurring in Philadelphia County, PA

Medium impact

29 of 38 violations in the last 12 months (76%) came from inspections in Philadelphia County, PA. That can mean tougher enforcement there or simply more of your miles run through it — either way it's worth a look.

What to do
  • Review the inspections from Philadelphia County, PA to spot recurring issues
  • Brief drivers running that lane; consider rerouting around the toughest enforcement corridors where practical

Seat belt violations are the leading contributor to Unsafe Driving

Estimated Unsafe Driving percentile of 1% is under the 50% line. In decent shape, but here's what's driving it.

Shared identifiers are common and often legitimate — treat these as leads to investigate, not proof of wrongdoing.
