Findings

Serious issues found
Far more vehicles observed than reported

This carrier reports 1 power unit on its MCS-150, but 32 distinct vehicles have been inspected operating under its USDOT across 22 states. A reported fleet far smaller than the vehicles operating under an authority can reflect an out-of-date MCS-150, a large lease-on or owner-operator fleet, or vehicles operating under this authority that the carrier did not register.

Vehicles previously operated by a revoked carrier

8 power units operated by this carrier were previously operated by another carrier whose FMCSA authority has since been revoked or gone inactive, with this carrier first inspected operating them after the other carrier stopped. This can reflect a purchase of a former carrier’s equipment.
