SHOWSTOPPER LLC: MYRTLE BEACH, South Carolina Trucking Company

SHOWSTOPPER LLC is a small fleet operating out of MYRTLE BEACH, South Carolina with USDOT number 649272. The company operates 17 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, SHOWSTOPPER LLC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 88/100, classified as Low Risk.

FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History

SHOWSTOPPER LLC has undergone 17 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 5.9%, which is below the national average of 20.72%, suggesting solid vehicle maintenance practices.

Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status

The public FMCSA record for SHOWSTOPPER LLC carries 11 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated October 13, 2026. Across 17 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.

What a 88/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means

The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for SHOWSTOPPER LLC: 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. 88 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Low Risk band.

South Carolina Trucking Compliance: MYRTLE BEACH Area Carriers

SHOWSTOPPER LLC falls under the Southern Service Center for FMCSA field-office oversight (region code 04). 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

SHOWSTOPPER LLC is classified by FMCSA as an interstate 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.

SHOWSTOPPER LLC 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, 16 drivers); intrastate within 100 miles (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: 340,000 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.

Fleet Composition and Driver Profile

Owned equipment per the FMCSA Census filing: 1 straight truck, 11 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 16 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: 2. 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: Stage Equipment. 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 1 crash event involving SHOWSTOPPER LLC in the available reporting window. Of these, 0 involved a fatality, 1 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: I-40, JACKSON, TN on March 4, 2025.

SHOWSTOPPER LLC's Inspection Fingerprint: Geographic Pattern and Trend

Inspections cluster geographically across North Carolina (3), Alabama (2), Arizona (2). The concentration in North Carolina is consistent with the carrier's primary lanes and tends to correlate with which state DOT inspector teams SHOWSTOPPER LLC's drivers encounter most often at roadside checkpoints.

How SHOWSTOPPER LLC Compares to the National Average

Across the 17 recorded inspections, SHOWSTOPPER LLC's 5.9% vehicle out-of-service rate sits well below 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%.
