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: 11.7% | NATL AVG: 14.4%

Driver Out-of-Service (OOS) Rate

CARRIER: 1.0% | NATL AVG: 6.0%

At or below the national average (▸ marker).

Crashes: ~1 every 14 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

Liability insurance — the coverage this carrier has on file with federal regulators (filed under the federal category "BIPD," Bodily Injury & Property Damage).

Filed Liability Limit

Self-insured (federally authorized)

Claims backed by the carrier's own assets, not a third-party policy limit.

Primary Insurer

ACTIVE FILINGS (ALL TYPES): 1 | SELF-INSURED: Yes

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.

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