Carrier ownership transitions
Each row marks a change in operator USDOT in inspection records, which may indicate a sale, lease, or operational reassignment.
How to read this: FMCSA inspection records show which carrier operated the vehicle on a given date, not the legal owner. A single change may reflect a sale, sublease, or fleet reassignment.
