Operator changes (inspection records)

When consecutive FMCSA inspections list different operating USDOT numbers for this VIN. Common after fleet transfers; can also reflect data-entry errors on rare tickets.

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.

Approximate date From carrier To carrier
Between Feb 1, 2024 and Apr 29, 2025 WILLIAMS DISTRIBUTING CO RACEHORSE TRANSPORTATION LLC

We say "Sale/auction not necessarily implied" — we see a change in operator USDOT in inspection records, which may indicate a sale, lease, or operational reassignment.
