What changed in the federal record

Name: Daily changes in the FMCSA federal motor carrier record
Creator: fleetfax

A daily count of what changed in the public FMCSA datasets: carriers registered, operating authority granted, authority suspension and revocation orders, and out-of-service orders. Every number is counted by the date on the federal record itself, not the date we read it. Recent days keep filling in for a few weeks as records are served into the file.

FMCSA's legacy public feeds froze in May 2026; filings now arrive via the agency's new system, which ramped up through June. Daily counts across that transition reflect the record as published.

fleetfax Pro monitors these events for the specific carriers in your book. See fleetfax Pro.

More from the record

Out-of-service rates National and by-state vehicle and driver out-of-service rates from recorded roadside inspections. Fleet age The age of power units seen in recorded roadside inspections. Live FMCSA service status Whether the public FMCSA services are responding right now, probed every 5 minutes.

Counts are drawn from the public FMCSA census, operating-authority, suspension and revocation, and insurance datasets and the Socrata inspection files, refreshed nightly into our own database. Each number counts records by the date on the federal record itself (the record's own add, served, or issue date), which can lag the underlying real-world event. Counts for recent days keep rising for up to a few weeks as records are served into the file; lighter bars mark days that are still filling in. An absence of data for a day is shown as a gap, not as zero. Insurance cancellation notices are not counted: the public insurance files carry policy term dates, not notice-filed dates, and counting term dates as cancellations would overstate them. fleetfax reads public FMCSA data and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to FMCSA or the U.S. Department of Transportation.
