Based on our analysis of federal safety data, BOWMAN TRUCKING INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 78/100, classified as Moderate Risk.
FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History
BOWMAN TRUCKING INC has undergone 46 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 23.9%, which is above the national average of 20.72%. This elevated rate indicates potential maintenance or pre-trip inspection deficiencies that could lead to roadside violations. The driver out-of-service rate is 2.2%, within acceptable range compared to the 5.51% national average.
Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status
The public FMCSA record for BOWMAN TRUCKING INC carries 90 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated September 24, 2026. Across 46 recorded inspections, the record carries 2 driver out-of-service violations and 16 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 78/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for BOWMAN TRUCKING 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. 78 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Moderate Risk band.
Oregon Trucking Compliance: LA GRANDE Area Carriers
BOWMAN TRUCKING INC falls under the Western Service Center for FMCSA field-office oversight (region code 10). 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
BOWMAN TRUCKING 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.
Business organization type: Corporation.
BOWMAN TRUCKING 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 beyond 100 miles (long-haul, 28 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: 2,887,256 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
The carrier reports 28 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.
FMCSA Crash History
The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 20 crash events involving BOWMAN TRUCKING INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 8 involved a reported injury, and 19 resulted in a tow-away. 20 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: HWY 204 .80 E KIRK RD, 37.26 W ELGIN, OR on January 19, 2026.
BOWMAN TRUCKING INC's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend
Inspections cluster geographically across Washington (39), Oregon (7). The concentration in Washington is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams BOWMAN TRUCKING INC's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.
