How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD stands for bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, generally the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier may be obliged to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Is VAUGHAN'S SOUTHWEST CUSTOM TOURS INC. licensed to operate?

The authority status on the federal record reads Active – Common Authority.

Does VAUGHAN'S SOUTHWEST CUSTOM TOURS INC. carry insurance?

The filing lists BI&PD liability on file at $1,500,000, against a federal minimum of $1,500,000. The entry shows cargo insurance as Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Always ask for the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated the day a policy is issued.

Owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration distinguishes private carriers, who haul their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag shows No and the enterprise flag reads No. It matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a one-off spot quote.

What freight does the company handle?

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: look up the USDOT number and verify the authority status, compare the insurance required against the insurance on file, and check that the phone number you are given matches the one published on the operator's own listing. Gaps between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 890425 mean?

The USDOT number is the federal operating number assigned to motor carriers in the United States.

Have it to hand when you request an insurance certificate, verify authority, or make a freight claim.

Safety and compliance data appears in the FMCSA's carrier snapshot rather than on this page, and it is only available for carriers that have been inspected. If safety history is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 890425 and read it there.
