Most Dangerous Motor Carriers
Carriers ranked by total crash count from FMCSA crash records. Includes fatality counts, injury totals, and hazmat involvement. High crash counts may partly reflect fleet size — larger carriers have more exposure miles.

Important Context
This ranking lists carriers by total reportable crash count — crashes involving a commercial motor vehicle that result in a fatality, injury requiring transport, or a towed vehicle. Large carriers with hundreds of thousands of miles driven will naturally appear more often. A high crash count does not necessarily mean a carrier is unsafe per mile traveled. For a rate-adjusted view, see individual carrier pages where crashes are shown alongside fleet size and mileage data.
