Benchmark Towing Systems LLC (USDOT 3691786) carries a federal safety record marked by two separate authority revocations on file with FMCSA, a figure that places this carrier among a narrow category of operators with repeated interruptions to their operating authority. Alongside those revocations, insurance coverage records show a gap period of 329 days — the longest of one recorded lapse — during the same period in which the carrier's FMCSA file also shows two crashes, neither involving fatalities nor injuries, with all reported crashes occurring during daytime hours. FMCSA records additionally flag the carrier as underinsured, with a $1,000,000 liability limit on file, alongside those two crashes in the carrier's history.

On the maintenance side, Benchmark Towing Systems LLC ranks in the 87th percentile for maintenance violations — placing it among the worse-performing carriers in that category nationally — with one violation recorded across the most recent 24-month inspection window. The single violation on file falls within the maintenance category, meaning the vehicle-condition dimension of this carrier's record is where its inspection history concentrates. Both crashes in the FMCSA record involve zero reported injuries and zero fatalities, and the night crash share stands at zero, indicating that all crash activity in the record falls within daytime operations. Taken as a whole, the federal file for this carrier reflects two authority revocations on file, an insurance lapse stretching nearly a full year, an underinsured flag alongside the crash record, and a maintenance-violation ranking that sits well into the upper range of poorly scored carriers.

If you or someone you know was injured in a crash involving Benchmark Towing Systems LLC, the federal safety record described here is drawn entirely from public FMCSA data and may be relevant to a legal claim. An attorney experienced in commercial trucking cases can review these records and advise you on your options. You are encouraged to seek qualified legal counsel as soon as possible, as time limits may apply to your claim.

This record is attached to your submission — your attorney starts with the evidence already pulled.

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.
