Would I hand freight to this carrier?
Active and reachable, but at least one material concern to check before you tender.
FleetPulse opinion — a transparent heuristic from public FMCSA data,
not an official FMCSA safety rating or score.
Go / Caution / No-go is FleetPulse's own deterministic read of the public
federal record (authority, insurance, inspections, crashes, identity
overlap). It is not FMCSA's SMS, BASIC, ISS, or safety
rating, and not Carrier411's or Highway's scores. Every signal is computed
from a named FMCSA source field — open any item's “proof” below to audit it.
Composite grade rubric

ordered override rules then a weighted-sum baseline, then

Not a fraud determination. A shared identity value can be perfectly legitimate (a leasing company, a registered agent, a common officer name). This is a transparent heuristic, never an accusation, and no other carrier is named.
