Vehicle OOS vs nat'l avg
Out-of-service inspection record
Out-of-Service (OOS) Rate — how often federal inspectors pulled this carrier's trucks or drivers off the road for safety violations.
Vehicle Out-of-Service (OOS) Rate
CARRIER: 14.5% | NATL AVG: 14.4%
ABOVE NATIONAL AVERAGE. Approximately 1 in every 7 federal inspections resulted in a direct order to remove this carrier's vehicle from the road.
Driver Out-of-Service (OOS) Rate
CARRIER: 0.8% | NATL AVG: 6.0%
At or below the national average (▸ marker).
An above-average out-of-service rate is the kind of federal record an attorney reviews when building a case. You don't have to interpret it alone. → Have this record reviewed
Federal crash record · trailing 24 months
Per-unit Out-of-Service (OOS) rates shown above.
Crashes: ~1 every 5 days
Fleet-wide averages don't decide individual cases. Liability turns on what this specific driver, dispatcher, and truck's logs show in the hours before your crash.
Liability Insurance Status
No active liability insurance filing is on record with federal regulators for this carrier.
Filed Liability Limit
Not on file
Primary Insurer
Liberty Mutual Insurance Co.
ACTIVE FILINGS (ALL TYPES): 2 | SELF-INSURED: No
When a carrier's federal record shows no active insurance on file, a qualified attorney can investigate other potential sources of recovery — including the carrier's assets, related parties, and state-level or unfiled policies — to identify defendants that could contribute to a claim.

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.
SafeNY is an independent legal-advertising service — not a law firm. Your submission is routed to one licensed personal-injury firm in your state.
