Carrier Detail Results Search

1. Enter a U.S. DOT # to generate SafeStat results for one carrier.
2. Enter a Motor Carrier # to generate SafeStat results for one carrier.
3. Enter a Motor Carrier's name to generate a list of carriers that match the text entered. This search will produce a list of carriers in alphabetical order.
• The Carrier Name Search can be accelerated by entering a carrier name and selecting a specific location from the pull-down menus: a U.S. State, Canadian Province, Mexican State, American Possession, or a Central American Country.
  NOTE: See Information Below for More Helpful Carrier Name Search Hints!
• The Carrier Name Search can be limited by using the text limitation option. The carrier list will either CONTAIN, START WITH, or END WITH the carrier name entered.

1. Step 1: Select one of the following location options:
   • For Interstate Carriers select:
     • All Locations: All U.S. DOT #'s in the United States, Canadian Provinces, Mexican States, American Possessions, and Central American Countries;
     • Service Center: Select a FMCSA service center - Eastern, Midwestern, Southern, or Western;
       
     • State: Select a state;
     • Or Outside U.S.: Select a location from the list of Canadian Provinces, Mexican States, American Possessions, or Central American Countries.
   • For Intrastate Carriers select:
     • All Locations: All U.S. DOT #'s in the United States, Canadian Provinces, Mexican States, American Possessions, and Central American Countries;
     • Or State: Select a state.
2. Step 2: Refine the carrier list by selecting one of the following options:
   • Scored Carriers: Carriers that are deficient in at least two different safety evaluation areas.
   • All Scored/Unscored Carriers: Carriers that are processed by SafeStat which include all interstate carriers and all intrastate, non-hazmat carriers.
   • Specific Category: Carriers are assigned a category based upon their safety deficiencies. The categories are defined as follows:
     • Category A: SafeStat score range between 350 and 550 with all 4 SEA values over 75 OR 3 SEA values that result in a weighted score of over 350.
     • Category B: SafeStat score range between 225 and 350 with 3 SEA values over 75 OR 2 SEA values that result in a weighted score of more than 225.
     • Category C: SafeStat score range between 150 and 225 with 2 SEA values that result in a weighted score of less than 225.
     • Category D: Does not receive a SafeStat score but does have an Accident SEA value between 75 and 100.
     • Category E: Does not receive a SafeStat score but does have a Driver SEA value between 75 and 100.
     • Category F: Does not receive a SafeStat score but does have a Vehicle SEA value between 75 and 100.
     • Category G: Does not receive a SafeStat score but does have a Safety Management SEA value between 75 and 100.
     • All Categories: All categories are displayed for scored and unscored carriers.
   • Specific SEA Value: The 4 SEA framework evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of each individual carrier's safety performance and compliance. See SafeStat Methodology
     • Accident SEA: The Accident SEA reflects a carrier's crash experience relative to its peers. The Accident SEA value is derived from indicators based on State Reported Crash and Census Data in conjunction with Compliance Review Data on Recordable Crash and VMT Data.
     • Driver SEA: The Driver SEA reflects a carrier's driver-related safety performance and compliance. The Driver SEA value is based on several indicators calculated from Driver Roadside Inspections, Compliance Reviews, and Moving Violations Data.
     • Vehicle SEA: The Vehicle SEA evaluates a carrier's vehicle-related safety performance and compliance. The Vehicle SEA value is based on Vehicle Roadside Inspection and Compliance Review Data.
     • Safety Management SEA: The Safety Management SEA reflects a carrier's safety management posture relative to its peers. The Safety Management SEA value is based on a series of indicators derived from Closed Enforcement Cases and Compliance Reviews.
3. Step 3: Select an option to sort the carrier list:
   • Category/National Rank: Carriers ranked according to their safety status.
   • Carrier Name: Carriers listed in alphabetical order.
   • US DOT #: Carriers listed in ascending US DOT # order.

• The fastest, most efficient way to generate SafeStat carrier results is to enter a U.S. DOT #. If the U.S. DOT # is unknown, enter a carrier name and choose a location to speed up the carrier search.
• When entering the carrier name, the system will search the carrier list for any matches. A match may not be found if the carrier name entered does not match the carrier's registered name exactly. Attempt the search using a unique part of the carrier name.
• Spelling is important when entering the carrier name. If you do not have the correct spelling, attempt the search using a unique part of the name.
• When entering a carrier name with initials or an acronym within the title, do not use periods to separate the letters. Periods or other punctuation marks are not recorded in the database and your selection will not be located.
  • Example 1:
    Motor Carrier Name: Grant Dowdell^*
    Located in: Colorado
    Ideal Search Method: Enter "Grant" in the carrier name text box since this is the most unique part of the carrier name. Select "Colorado" from the state pull-down menu.
  
  
  
  • Example 2:
    Motor Carrier Name: A & J MACKENZIE BROTHERS CONSTRUCTION LTD^*
    Located in: ?
    Ideal Search Method: Enter "A & J MAC" in the carrier name text box without periods separating the acronym. Do not attempt to use the entire name in the first search attempt. If this attempt is unsuccessful, try another part of the name like "MACKENZIE". (Please note that upper or lowercase does not affect the search.)
