COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION INC is a mid-size fleet operating out of THOUSAND PALMS, California with USDOT number 2719252. The company operates 26 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, COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION INC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 74/100, classified as Moderate Risk.
COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION INC has undergone 31 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 16.1%, which is below the national average of 20.72%, suggesting solid vehicle maintenance practices. The driver out-of-service rate is 3.2%, within acceptable range compared to the 5.51% national average.
The public FMCSA record for COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION INC carries 27 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated September 10, 2026. Across 31 recorded inspections, the record carries 1 driver out-of-service violation and 5 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.
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION 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. 74 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Moderate Risk band.
COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION INC is classified by FMCSA as an intrastate non-hazmat carrier.
The carrier is classified as Private Property, meaning it transports its own goods incidental to its primary business, exempt from MC-number authority but still subject to safety regulations under 49 CFR Part 390.
COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION 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 beyond 100 miles (26 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: 550,000 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: 26 straight trucks, 6 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 5 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: 26. Intrastate drivers may be subject to state-specific CDL endorsement and hours-of-service variances depending on the state.
The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 1 crash event involving COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 1 involved a fatality, 0 involved a reported injury, and 1 resulted in a tow-away. 1 event meets 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: INDIAN CANYON DR/5808ft N TRAMVIEW RD, PALM SPRINGS, CA on November 27, 2018.
Across the 31 recorded inspections, COCHRAN COMMUNICATIONS CONSTRUCTION INC's 16.1% vehicle out-of-service rate sits slightly below the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 3.2% driver out-of-service rate sits slightly below the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
