AD Wrecker Service Inc (USDOT 470489) carries a federal safety record marked by two separate authority revocations on file with FMCSA, alongside three reported crashes — one of which involved an injury — with approximately one-third of those crashes occurring at night. The revocation history is a bare administrative fact drawn directly from public FMCSA records: FMCSA records show two separate authority revocations on file for this carrier.
Beyond the revocation record, the carrier's compliance data reveals additional areas of note. Over the most recent 24-month inspection window, FMCSA recorded six violations, all falling within the hours-of-service category. On maintenance, the carrier ranks in the lower tier of FMCSA's measurement system — a 17th-percentile maintenance score places it among carriers that score better than only a small fraction of the industry, indicating a comparatively weak standing in that domain. The three total crashes — with one injury and no fatalities recorded — represent a modest crash count, though the presence of a nighttime component, with roughly one in three crashes occurring during nighttime conditions, is part of the overall crash profile on record.
Insurance records add a further dimension to the file. FMCSA records flag the carrier as underinsured, with a $1,000,000 liability limit on file alongside those three reported crashes and one reported injury. The insurance record also shows three coverage gap periods, with the longest single gap extending to 366 days — a period during which continuous coverage was not on file with FMCSA.
Taken as a whole, the public FMCSA record for AD Wrecker Service Inc (USDOT 470489) combines two authority revocations, hours-of-service violations, a low-percentile maintenance standing, an underinsured flag, and multiple insurance coverage gaps, alongside a three-crash history that includes one injury and a nighttime crash component.

This record is attached to your submission — your attorney starts with the evidence already pulled.
Why timing matters
State law may give you years to file a claim — but the evidence often doesn't last that long. Dashcam and onboard data can be overwritten within days. Federal rules require carriers to keep a driver's electronic logs (ELD) for only six months; after that, deletion is lawful. A preservation letter from an attorney puts the carrier on formal notice — destroying evidence after that point risks court sanctions.
