transportation: 7.8 TCR = 173% of Trucking, general freight, long-distance, truckload (TL) BLS 4.5 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

transportation safety composite

transportation scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 10%), 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).
