25/25
Revocation HistoryPast authority revocations by FMCSA — usually for lapsed insurance. Even if reinstated, a revocation history is a warning sign.

No executed revocations (1 cured notice 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 record on file; no bonus criteria met yet. Remaining bonus would need: a below-average vehicle out-of-service rate; a below-average driver out-of-service rate; a crash-free 24 months; an official FMCSA Satisfactory rating (most carriers are never rated).
