Authority dates

Common carrier authority first granted: September 6, 2011
Common carrier authority last granted or reinstated: September 6, 2011
Common carrier authority status: Inactive

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.

Inspections and crashesOctober 2024 to October 2026

Roadside inspections: 0
Driver out-of-service inspections: No inspections
Vehicle out-of-service inspections: No inspections
Reportable crashes: 0

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.
