What you get

What sits on a carrier record.

Twelve sections, each built from a named source. Where a value is reconstructed rather than published, the record says so.

01
Identity and authority

Legal name, DBA, USDOT, MC docket, EIN, registration date and MCS 150 date, with the current authority status and whether hazmat is authorized.

02
Contact and officers

Mailing address, phone, cell and email, plus named company officials with their own contact details where they are on file.

03
Insurance on file

Current insurer, liability and cargo amounts, surety bond, coverage type, policy number and effective date, with the full filing timeline behind it.

04
Safety record

Inspections, clean rate, out of service events and crashes over selectable periods, the official FMCSA safety rating, and out of service rates against the national average.

05
Fleet and equipment

Power units, drivers, CDL drivers and reported mileage, plus decoded VINs with make, model, body class and last inspection date.

06
Operating footprint

Where the fleet is actually being inspected, by state, so a carrier's claimed lane and its observed lane can be compared.

Coverage

Reported figures and observed figures, side by side.

A carrier tells the FMCSA how many trucks it runs. Roadside inspections tell you how many have actually been seen. The record shows both, because the gap between them is the single most useful thing on the page.

  • Power units and drivers as reported on the MCS 150
  • Distinct VINs observed in inspection records, with average model year
  • Inspection counts by state
  • A paper carrier check that requires corroboration before it flags anything

Questions

Answered up front.

Which carriers are in the database?
Every operating motor carrier registered with the FMCSA, along with brokers and freight forwarders. That includes private fleets that run their own freight, which are marked as private rather than graded on a for hire carrier scale.
How current is a record?
The whole database refreshes on a fixed schedule twice a day, and new registrations are discovered the same day they appear. Individual records carry the date they were last refreshed so you are never guessing at the age of what you are reading.
Can I look up a USDOT that is not in the database yet?
Yes. Search a five to eight digit number with no local match and the record is pulled live from the FMCSA and added.
Is the CSA data official?
The five BASIC percentiles come from FMCSA safety measurement data. Where a percentile is not published and we reconstruct it from the underlying inspection record, it is marked as an estimate on the page and excluded from the TruScore calculation.
What can this data be used for?
Sales, prospecting and vendor decisions about businesses. It is business information, not a consumer report, and it must not be used to make credit, insurance underwriting, employment or tenancy decisions about individuals. That limit is written into the acceptable use policy.

Truckscribe is built on FMCSA public records and other commercial business sources. It is business information for sales and vendor decisions, not a consumer report. How we handle data

Look up any carrier in the country.

Every plan includes the full database. Tiers differ on seats and how many records you open a day.
