Insurance on File — What the Numbers Mean
99% of Idaho carriers granted authority in the last 90 days show no BIPD insurance filing in the FMCSA system. This is expected — federal regulations give new carriers up to 90 days after receiving authority to file a BMC-91X with FMCSA. Insurance agents and underwriters who identify these carriers early are well-positioned to be the first call.
IQS Booster monitors the FMCSA registry daily and alerts you the moment a new carrier appears in your target states — before they file insurance anywhere.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many new trucking authorities were granted in Idaho in the last 30 days?
68 new trucking authorities were granted to carriers physically located in Idaho over the past 30 days. Over the past 90 days, that number rises to 199.
What is a "new trucking authority" in FMCSA terms?
A new trucking authority refers to a carrier that received a new USDOT number or MC (Motor Carrier) number — the FMCSA's core identifier for interstate commerce. The add_date field in the FMCSA carrier census marks when the carrier first appeared in the registry.
Why do so many new Idaho carriers have no insurance on file?
Federal regulations (49 CFR Part 387) require carriers to have insurance on file before operating, but the FMCSA carrier census data lags the actual insurance-filing process. The 99% rate reflects carriers whose BMC-91X has not yet posted to the FMCSA system — many will have active policies through their insurer that simply haven't been electronically transmitted to FMCSA yet.
