The verdict

B&W Cartage: 2.1 TCR = 46% of Agents, shipping BLS 4.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

B&W Cartage safety composite

B&W Cartage scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 47%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
