Truck Inspection Statistics & Research
Dated analyses of public FMCSA records, with inspection denominators, reproducible queries and downloadable tables. Cite the individual study’s permanent address and snapshot date.
Driver and vehicle out-of-service findings
Driver and vehicle inspection-weighted rates, eligible carrier-record counts and coverage limits. Published October 10, 2026.
How findings vary by recorded inspection volume
Separate driver and vehicle tables grouped by inspection denominators: 1–9, 10–49, 50–199 and 200 or more. These groups describe recorded inspections, not fleet size or crash risk. Published October 10, 2026.
How to use these findings
Quote the dated study, identify the inspection population and retain its denominator and limitations. Inspections are not a random sample of traffic. Findings do not establish fault or a carrier’s future crash risk.
Future comparisons
One dated source snapshot is available. We do not describe changes over time until additional comparable snapshots exist. Published downloads stay fixed; later analyses will have their own dates, coverage checks and permanent addresses.
