Clean — no reportable crashes

No roadside inspections in the last 24 months — so there's no out-of-service rate to compare. Smaller fleets are inspected less often; a clean window like this is a neutral signal, not a warning.

4 revocation(s), all over 2 years ago — no recent issues

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: no crashes in 24 months. Remaining bonus would need: more vehicle inspections on record; more driver inspections on record; an official FMCSA Satisfactory rating (most carriers are never rated).
