KME: 4.5 TCR = 100% of Specialized Freight except Used Goods Trucking Long-Distance BLS 4.5 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

KME safety composite

KME scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 59% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 32%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers.
