FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History
FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE INC has undergone 14 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 7.1%, which is below the national average of 20.72%, suggesting solid vehicle maintenance practices. The driver out-of-service rate is 21.4%, above the national average of 5.51%. Common causes include hours-of-service violations, expired medical certificates, and CDL issues.
Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status
The public FMCSA record for FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE INC carries 22 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated February 20, 2026. Across 14 recorded inspections, the record carries 3 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 63/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE 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. 63 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Moderate Risk band.
New Jersey Trucking Compliance: FLANDERS Area Carriers
FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE INC falls under the Eastern Service Center for FMCSA field-office oversight (region code 01). 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
FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE 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.
FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE 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 (12 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: 135,000 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: 12 straight trucks. 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 3 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: 12. Intrastate drivers may be subject to state-specific CDL endorsement and hours-of-service variances depending on the state.
FMCSA Crash History
The FMCSA Motor Carrier Management Information System (MCMIS) crash dataset records 11 crash events involving FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE INC in the available reporting window. Of these, 1 involved a fatality, 7 involved a reported injury, and 10 resulted in a tow-away. 11 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: US 206 (Disabled American Veterans Highway), CHESTER TWP, NJ on April 27, 2026.
How FISCHER THOMPSON BEVERAGE INC Compares to the National Average
