TAYLOR AND ARMSTRONG CONTRACTING INC
Data confidence
The values below are exactly what FMCSA carries on file for this carrier. Items flagged here read as unusual. ProHRHQ does not override federal values — corrections go through DataQs or an updated MCS-150.
- 24-month inspection volume: 2 inspection(s) — Per FMCSA SMS, the inspection volume in the 24-month review window is light. Peer-cohort percentages derived from a small sample carry less stability than the same percentages computed from a larger sample.
- FMCSA safety rating: S (19921210) — Per FMCSA filing, the safety rating on file is 34 years old. FMCSA does not automatically expire ratings, but a rating issued before the 24-month review window does not reflect the current compliance posture.

What the BASIC table shows
What the BASIC table shows
Each BASIC (Behavior Analysis and Safety Improvement Category) is a slice of the safety record — Unsafe Driving, Hours-of-Service, Driver Fitness, Controlled Substances/Alcohol, Vehicle Maintenance, and Hazmat. "% of cohort" is this carrier's time-weighted violation count divided by the average among similarly sized peers. Below 100% means below cohort average; above 100% means above. Acute or critical violations are flagged in their own column and reflect FMCSA's most serious citation classes.
