KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC: BAKERSFIELD, California Trucking Company

KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC is a mid-size fleet operating out of BAKERSFIELD, California with USDOT number 2652575. The company operates 78 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, KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 39/100, classified as High Risk.

FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History

KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC has undergone 28 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 17.9%, which is below the national average of 20.72%, suggesting solid vehicle maintenance practices. The driver out-of-service rate is 3.6%, within acceptable range compared to the 5.51% national average.

Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status

The public FMCSA record for KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC carries 34 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated September 14, 2026. Across 28 recorded inspections, the record carries 1 driver out-of-service violation and 7 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 KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES 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.

Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile

KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC is classified by FMCSA as an intrastate non-hazmat 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.

KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES 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 within 100 miles (81 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: 340 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: 75 straight trucks, 3 tractors, 4 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 46 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.

Intrastate driver count: 81. Intrastate drivers may be subject to state-specific CDL endorsement and hours-of-service variances depending on the state.

Primary cargo type per MCS-150: Toilet Waste Portable Restrooms. Cargo type drives which BASIC categories the carrier is monitored under (Hazmat Compliance applies only to HM-flagged carriers; Cargo-Related Crash applies broadly).

FMCSA Crash History

The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 14 crash events involving KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 4 involved a reported injury, and 14 resulted in a tow-away. 14 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: HWY46/43, WASCO, CA on October 2, 2025.

How KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC Compares to the National Average

Across the 28 recorded inspections, KNIGHT'S SITE SERVICES INC's 17.9% vehicle out-of-service rate sits slightly below the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 3.6% driver out-of-service rate sits slightly below the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
