- No pending authority revocation.
- Not under an uncleared federal out-of-service or safety action.

- No cargo insurance on file. Required for many shipper contracts.
- No history of insurance lapses.

- No preventable crashes in the last 24 months; recordable crash rate 0 not elevated.
- No fatal crashes in the last 24 months.
