RED HOT EXPEDITING INC is a small fleet operating out of PFLUGERVILLE, Texas with USDOT number 1735397. The company operates 6 power units and holds a current FMCSA safety rating of Satisfactory. Based on our analysis of federal safety data, RED HOT EXPEDITING INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 86/100, classified as Low Risk.
RED HOT EXPEDITING INC has undergone 4 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 25.0%, 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 public FMCSA record for RED HOT EXPEDITING INC carries 29 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated September 4, 2026. Across 4 recorded inspections, the record carries 0 driver out-of-service violations and 1 vehicle out-of-service violation.
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.
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for RED HOT EXPEDITING 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. 86 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Low Risk band.
RED HOT EXPEDITING 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.
RED HOT EXPEDITING 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, 2 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: 200,000 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.
Owned equipment per the FMCSA Census filing: 4 tractors, 2 trailers. 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.
The carrier reports 2 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.
Primary cargo type per MCS-150: Crane Mats, Concrete Pipe And Panels. Cargo type drives which BASIC categories the carrier is monitored under (Hazmat Compliance applies only to HM-flagged carriers; Cargo-Related Crash applies broadly).
The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 4 crash events involving RED HOT EXPEDITING INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 4 involved a reported injury, and 2 resulted in a tow-away. 4 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: N 2000 US 377 HWY, ROANOKE, TX on July 14, 2025.
Across the 4 recorded inspections, RED HOT EXPEDITING INC's 25.0% vehicle out-of-service rate sits moderately above 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%.
