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 Jan 8, 2025 and Aug 21, 2025 | SOUTHWAYS LLC | K1K TRANS LLC |
| Between Aug 21, 2025 and Oct 18, 2025 | K1K TRANS LLC | MDK TRANSPORT LLC |
| Between Oct 22, 2025 and Dec 5, 2025 | MDK TRANSPORT LLC | STEP IN SPACE INC |
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.
