Know your FMCSA safety standing. Keep it current. Improve what matters.
Carrier-Aware computes your BASIC safety percentiles from public FMCSA records using FMCSA's published SMS Methodology — so you can see where you stand, understand what moves it, and present your safety with confidence. Enter your USDOT number to start.
Returns your Vehicle Maintenance BASIC as a clean percentile, with the FMCSA intervention line shown.
What you get, how it's computed, and what it costs
All five BASIC percentiles
Vehicle Maintenance free, the other four BASICs with a free account — each as a clean percentile.
Violation drill-down
See the violations behind each BASIC, down to the inspection that moved the number.
Score-change alerts — Pro
For carriers you monitor, stated as facts — "Vehicle Maintenance moved from 62 to 58" — so your standing stays current.
FMCSA threshold in view
The FMCSA intervention line — the 80th-percentile threshold — marked alongside every score, so the line is always clear.
Published SMS Methodology
Every percentile follows FMCSA's published SMS Methodology — the same math, applied consistently.
Linked to public inspections
Each figure links back to the public inspections behind it, so you can check the math yourself.
Honest about thin data
When a BASIC has too few inspections to rank reliably, it says "not enough data to rank yet" rather than inventing a number.
Independent
Carrier-Aware is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by FMCSA.

Start with one real number, free
Enter your USDOT number and Carrier-Aware returns your Vehicle Maintenance BASIC as a clean percentile, with the FMCSA intervention line shown and a one-sentence plain-English read of what it means. The figure is computed from your public FMCSA inspection record, dated and sourced — a reproducible number, not a black box. A free account opens the other four BASICs, the violations behind each one, and your 12-month trend.
Computed in the open, honest by default
Every percentile follows FMCSA's published SMS Methodology and links back to the public inspections behind it, so you can check the math yourself. When a BASIC has too few inspections to rank reliably, Carrier-Aware says so plainly — it shows "not enough data to rank yet" rather than inventing a number. Carrier-Aware is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by FMCSA.
Understand the fix, not just the score
A free account drills each percentile down to the inspection that moved it and translates it into plain English — what the number means and the one or two changes that actually shift it. For carriers you monitor with Pro, score-change alerts are stated as facts, for example "Vehicle Maintenance moved from 62 to 58," so you can keep your standing current and act on what matters to you.
See your record through every lens, and where it trends
Pro, at $1.99 a month or $20.99 a year, adds lens views: read the same safety record the way FMCSA, an insurer, or Amazon Relay reads it, side by side. A 30-day forecast shows where your standing trends if nothing changes — a planning tool for the work ahead, stated as a projection and nothing more.
