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 small-sized fleet.

Crash Frequency

Crash Severity

More severe
injury/fatal weighted

We'd expect a typical small-sized fleet this active to have about 0.0 crashes a year. This carrier recorded 0 in the last 12 months — fewer than a typical fleet. Factoring in its full inspection and violation record, the model projects about 0.1 over the next 12 — about 1.7× the typical fleet.

Fatal-crash risk: less than a 1% chance in the next 12 months
Modeled fatal-crash rate is roughly 1.6× the typical small fleet (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: 3 inspections and 0 crashes.
Confidence: Moderate
Graded mostly on this carrier's own record (about 70,000 miles/yr, 3 inspections, 0 crashes in the last 12 months), partly weighted toward the average small fleet.
