FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History
ROYAL K EXPRESS INC has undergone 26 recorded DOT inspections.
Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status
The public FMCSA record for ROYAL K EXPRESS INC carries 10 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated May 19, 2026. Across 26 recorded inspections, the record carries 0 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 100/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for ROYAL K EXPRESS 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. 100 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Low Risk band.
Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile
ROYAL K EXPRESS 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.
ROYAL K EXPRESS 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, 13 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: 687,959 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 13 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.
ROYAL K EXPRESS INC's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend
Inspections cluster geographically across US (12), California (9), Arizona (3). The concentration in US is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams ROYAL K EXPRESS INC's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.
How ROYAL K EXPRESS INC Compares to the National Average
