Each date applies to its own record. A registration change does not mean every filing changed. An inspection or vehicle observation describes that date, not continuous operation today.

USDOT registration and operating authority are different records. A crash entry records involvement, not a finding of fault. Missing information is not a clean safety record.

A roadside out-of-service finding applies to the inspected driver or vehicle; it is different from a federal order against the carrier. Crash involvement does not determine fault or preventability. Counts cover the stated reporting period, not the carrier’s entire history.
