Forward 12-Month Risk Outlook

The FRED Score predicts this carrier's crash risk over the next 12 months — how often they're likely to crash and how severe those crashes tend to be — versus a typical large-sized fleet.

injury/fatal weighted

We'd expect a typical large-sized fleet this active to have about 0.5 crashes a year. This carrier recorded 1 in the last 12 months — about 2.2× a typical fleet. Factoring in its full inspection and violation record, the model projects about 0.7 over the next 12 — about 1.5× the typical fleet.

Fatal-crash risk: about 1% chance in the next 12 months
Modeled fatal-crash rate is about typical for its size (likelihood of at least one fatal crash, from its exposure and safety profile).
Track Record Used
Built from this carrier's most recent 12 months on record: 11 inspections and 1 crash.
Confidence: Moderate
Graded mostly on this carrier's own record (about 1,100,000 miles/yr, 11 inspections, 1 crash in the last 12 months), partly weighted toward the average large fleet.
