Revocation HistoryPast authority revocations by FMCSA — usually for lapsed insurance. Even if reinstated, a revocation history is a warning sign.

1 revocation(s), all over 2 years ago — no recent issues (6 cured notices not counted — deficiency fixed in time, never took effect)

25/25
SafetyBonus points for a demonstrably clean record: enough recent inspections with below-average out-of-service rates and no crashes. Never subtracts — thin data simply earns no bonus.

Safety bonus earned for: below-average driver out-of-service rate, no crashes in 24 months, Satisfactory FMCSA rating. Remaining bonus would need: more vehicle inspections on record.
