Plain-text risk summary (print / paste)
TruckCodex risk summary — BOSTON GAS COMPANY (USDOT 219186) Verdict: CAUTION Book with caution — review signals below No hard OOS / revoked / uninsured blocker, but elevated risk signals need a human look before booking. Authority / census status: Active Blockers: (none) Cautions: • OOS mixed vs peers — Driver 6.70% (worse, peer 1.20%) · Vehicle 0.00% (better, peer 16.1%) — one mixed line, not dual better/worse claims. • 3 fatalities on crash record — 27 FMCSA-reportable crashes on file. On file: (none) Source: https://truckcodex.com/usdot/219186/ As of: Oct 25, 2026 Always confirm on FMCSA SAFER and L&I before tendering — TruckCodex mirrors public filings and can lag by up to a day.
