CROWN FORWARDING INC: BETHLEHEM, Pennsylvania Trucking Company

CROWN FORWARDING INC is a small fleet operating out of BETHLEHEM, Pennsylvania with USDOT number 1017982. The company operates 9 power units and has no published FMCSA safety rating (most active carriers are unrated unless they have undergone a compliance review). Based on our analysis of federal safety data, CROWN FORWARDING INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 39/100, classified as High Risk.

FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History

CROWN FORWARDING INC has undergone 6 recorded DOT inspections. The driver out-of-service rate is 50%, above the national average of 5.51%. Common causes include hours-of-service violations, expired medical certificates, and CDL issues.

Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status

The public FMCSA record for CROWN FORWARDING INC carries 20 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated July 7, 2026. Across 6 recorded inspections, the record carries 3 driver out-of-service violations and 0 vehicle out-of-service violations.

A recorded violation is what an inspector wrote down at the roadside. It is not a penalty, and it is not an amount owed: FMCSA assesses civil penalties only after a compliance review classifies specific cited violations. The step that changes this record is the document behind each line, so the next move is to see which records an investigator would ask for and which of them exist today.

What a 39/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means

The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for CROWN FORWARDING INC: the safety rating, the inspection pass rate and the out-of-service rate against the national average. It is not an FMCSA score, and FMCSA does not use it to choose carriers for an investigation. 39 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's High Risk band.

Pennsylvania Trucking Compliance: BETHLEHEM Area Carriers

CROWN FORWARDING INC falls under the Eastern Service Center for FMCSA field-office oversight (region code 01). Service-center territory drives which FMCSA Investigator team would conduct a new-entrant audit or compliance review if one is triggered for this carrier.

Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile

CROWN FORWARDING INC is classified by FMCSA as an interstate carrier.

The carrier holds an Authorized For Hire classification, meaning it transports cargo or passengers for compensation under FMCSA operating authority and is subject to MC-number requirements at 49 CFR Part 365.

CROWN FORWARDING INC is not flagged in FMCSA Census as a hazmat carrier (HM indicator: N), so the carrier is not subject to the additional 49 CFR Subchapter C hazmat regulations.

Operational range per MCS-150 filing: intrastate beyond 100 miles (10 drivers). The 100-mile boundary matters because drivers operating within a 100-air-mile radius qualify for the short-haul exception under 49 CFR 395.1(e)(1), which removes the requirement to maintain RODS for the day.

Self-reported MCS-150 annual mileage: 1 miles. MCS-150 mileage feeds the FMCSA SafeStat exposure denominator: drastically understated mileage can artificially inflate CSA BASIC percentile scores by reducing the per-mile exposure baseline. Updates are required every 24 months under 49 CFR 390.19.

Fleet Composition and Driver Profile

Owned equipment per the FMCSA Census filing: 8 straight trucks, 1 tractor. Owned-vs-leased equipment matters for compliance documentation, owned trailers require the carrier to retain annual inspection certificates under 49 CFR 396.17, while leased trailers shift that documentation responsibility to the lease agreement.

Intrastate driver count: 10. Intrastate drivers may be subject to state-specific CDL endorsement and hours-of-service variances depending on the state.

FMCSA Crash History

The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 2 crash events involving CROWN FORWARDING INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 2 involved a reported injury, and 2 resulted in a tow-away. 2 events meet the federal-recordable threshold under 49 CFR 390.5 (fatality, injury treated away from the scene, OR tow-away of any vehicle).

Most recent recorded event: NJ 35, SOUTH AMBOY CITY, NJ on October 30, 2014.

CROWN FORWARDING INC's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend
