FMCSA insurance file as of May 14, 2026.
Insurer names and policy numbers appear here once our nightly copy has them. Run the live check for the current FMCSA filing.
From FMCSA's authority history (its current Motus system, plus the older L&I history it froze on May 14, 2026). "First granted" is the earliest grant on record; "on record since" is the earliest action FMCSA has when the grant itself is older than its electronic records. "Active since" is the latest grant or reinstatement, so a lapse that FMCSA reinstated restarts the clock.
From FMCSA's Safety Measurement System files, October 2024 to October 2026. Crash counts include crashes the carrier didn't cause. Out-of-service rates use only inspections that checked the driver or the vehicle.
Every roadside inspection in FMCSA's file for USDOT #1848198: when, where, and which vehicles (type, make, VIN) the inspector recorded.
THC compares FMCSA's files every night and keeps what changed. Tracked since October 30, 2026, last compared November 15, 2026.

USDOT status changed
Inactive → Active
Why it may matter: An inactive USDOT number should not be used for interstate commercial trucking.
What it doesn't show: USDOT status is not operating authority. An active USDOT can still have no active MC authority.
Next step: Run a live check, and confirm with the company using the phone number on its FMCSA record.

MCS-150 updated
FMCSA's file dates the update July 27, 2025
Why it may matter: Carriers must update the MCS-150 every two years. A fresh update means the fleet and contact details are recent.
What it doesn't show: The MCS-150 is filled in by the company itself; FMCSA doesn't check the numbers.
Next step: Nothing needed unless other details changed too.
