A public-record lens on freight movement

Who's Hauling Our Freight? is a TEA Technologies research platform. It aggregates public FMCSA roadside inspection records, crash data, authority information, and load-document-derived carrier associations into a single, searchable directory organized by shipper, broker, consignee, and freight-entity name.

What the platform does

The platform makes it possible to answer one question for any indexed freight entity:

Which motor carriers have historically appeared in FMCSA inspection records tied to this entity, and what is the public safety context surrounding those carriers?

Inspired by Montgomery v. Caribe Transport

The platform was built in part to make the kind of public carrier-association research central to modern transportation litigation — including matters such as Montgomery v. Caribe Transport — accessible to underwriters, brokers, shippers, insurers, journalists, researchers, and the public.

Nothing on this site constitutes a legal conclusion. The platform does not opine on whether any entity engaged in negligent hiring, negligent selection, unsafe practices, or any other legally operative conduct. It surfaces publicly derived inspection and transportation data so that users can conduct their own informed review.

What brokers and shippers should know

Federal motor-carrier authority alone does not establish operational fitness. Carriers operate under evolving safety profiles, insurance arrangements, and regulatory standings. Sound due-diligence practice considers historical inspection context, crash history, authority status, and other public indicators alongside contractual, insurance, and underwriting review.
