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 #206068: when, where, and which vehicles (type, make, VIN) the inspector recorded.

MCS-150 updated
FMCSA's file dates the update November 12, 2026
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.

Doing-business-as name changed
None → DON HEDGES TOWING
Why it may matter: Name changes are common after a sale or rebrand. A recent change is also something fraud checklists ask you to look at.
What it doesn't show: A name change alone says nothing about who owns or runs the company now.
Next step: Make sure the name on the rate confirmation and invoice matches the current FMCSA name.

New operating authority record
Carrier: Pending
Why it may matter: A new authority docket often means a new carrier or broker, or a company adding a new kind of authority.
What it doesn't show: A pending authority is not yet active and cannot be used to haul or broker loads.
Next step: Wait for authority to become active before booking, and check insurance on file.
