CIS subtotal normalizes 3 publicly-available FMCSA components (Safety Rating + Inspection Pass Rate + OOS Rate) to a 0-100 surface. CSA SMS BASIC percentiles are not published in FMCSA's public Socrata datasets and the SMS portal at ai.fmcsa.dot.gov is not crawlable at scale, so we surface a transparent "Not measured" rather than fabricate a score component. Carriers with a Compliance Review on record may have published BASIC data on the SAFER snapshot for that DOT.
HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC is a large fleet operating out of ST AUGUSTINE, Florida with USDOT number 1281776. The company operates 253 power units and holds a current FMCSA safety rating of Satisfactory. Based on our analysis of federal safety data, HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 100/100, classified as Low Risk.
HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC has undergone 50 recorded DOT inspections.
A CIS score of 100 places HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC in the Low Risk category. This carrier demonstrates strong safety practices across inspections, maintenance, and driver compliance. Maintaining this score requires ongoing document tracking, timely medical card renewals, and consistent pre-trip inspections.
Motor carriers operating in Florida must comply with both federal FMCSA regulations and state-specific transportation requirements. The ST AUGUSTINE, FL corridor is monitored by FMCSA field offices and state highway patrol units conducting roadside inspections. Carriers based in ST AUGUSTINE should ensure driver qualification files, vehicle inspection reports, and hours-of-service records are current and audit-ready at all times.
FileFlo helps Florida trucking companies automate compliance document tracking across 600+ document types, including CDL medical cards, annual vehicle inspections, drug & alcohol testing records, and driver training certifications.
HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC is classified by FMCSA as an interstate carrier.
The carrier holds an Private Passenger, Business;Private Passenger, Non-Business;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.
HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA 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: interstate within 100 miles (short-haul, 308 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: 1,422,367 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.
The carrier reports 308 CDL-holding drivers on file. Each CDL driver must have a current Driver Qualification File (DQF) maintained per 49 CFR 391.51, including a Medical Examiner's Certificate, an annual MVR review, and a record of road-test results.
The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 15 crash events involving HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 12 involved a reported injury, and 7 resulted in a tow-away. 15 events meet the federal-recordable threshold under 49 CFR 390.5 (fatality, injury treated away from the scene, OR tow-away of any vehicle).
Federal-recordable crashes feed the Crash Indicator BASIC in CSA: carriers above the intervention threshold are 7-10x more likely to be selected for a compliance review than peer carriers below the threshold. Insurance carriers also pull federal-recordable crash counts during quoting; a single recordable crash in a 24-month look-back can drive a 10-20% premium increase for owner-operators and small fleets.
Most recent recorded event: 700 K STREET NW, WASHINGTON, DC on 20251013.
Inspections cluster geographically across Georgia (48), Massachusetts (2). The concentration in Georgia is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.
Across the 50 recorded inspections, HISTORIC TOURS OF AMERICA INC's 0.0% vehicle out-of-service rate sits materially below the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 0.0% driver out-of-service rate sits materially below the 2024 national average of 5.51%. Vehicle OOS-rate variance is the strongest predictor of Vehicle Maintenance BASIC scores in CSA; driver OOS-rate variance is the strongest predictor of Hours-of-Service Compliance + Driver Fitness BASIC scores.
FMCSA's intervention thresholds (the percentile bands that trigger investigator outreach) are roughly 65th percentile for non-passenger non-hazmat carriers (75th for hazmat, 70th for passenger) on each BASIC. Carriers that consistently sit above the national average across multiple BASICs accumulate intervention risk faster than carriers with mixed performance. A single high BASIC alone rarely triggers enforcement; sustained over-threshold performance does.
