How does Maas Logistics monitor driver safety?

Every tractor is equipped with a dash cam and Samsara ELD telematics, which record hours of service, speed and driving events. Coaching is based on that data rather than on hearsay.

How can I verify a carrier's safety record?

Any shipper can look up a motor carrier's authority status, insurance filings, inspection history and CSA BASIC percentiles for free through FMCSA's SAFER and Safety Measurement System.

Do you pay drivers for safe performance?

Yes. A $50 safety bonus is part of driver pay, because incentives shape behavior more reliably than policies do.

What happens if a driver finds a defect on a trailer?

Drivers perform a DOT pre-trip inspection before every dispatch — including on customer-owned trailers in power-only service — and are backed by management when they refuse unsafe equipment.

Safety program

Safety first. Safety always.

Shippers check this page before they trust you with freight, and drivers check it before they trust you with their license. Here is exactly how we run.

Every Maas Logistics tractor operates with a dash cam and Samsara electronic logging, and drivers complete a DOT pre-trip inspection before every dispatch.

ELD & telematics monitoring

Samsara ELD across the fleet records hours of service, speed and driving events, giving us objective data to coach from and shippers accurate ETAs.

Dash cameras in every tractor

Cameras protect good drivers as much as they document incidents — most of our footage reviews end with a driver being cleared.

Pre-trip inspection discipline

DOT pre-trip inspections before every dispatch, including on customer trailers in power-only service. Drivers who refuse unsafe equipment are supported, not second-guessed.

Preventive maintenance

A 2020–2025 tractor fleet on a scheduled PM program — brakes, tires, lights and airlines addressed before they become roadside violations.

Experience requirements

We hire CDL-A drivers 23 or older with 3+ years of verifiable experience, at least a year of trailer experience and a clean record.

Safety incentives

A $50 safety bonus is built into driver pay, and non-forced dispatch means nobody is pressured to drive tired to keep a load.

How shippers can verify us

We think every shipper should verify every carrier — including us. All of this is public and free:

Check authority status and insurance filings on FMCSA's SAFER Company Snapshot
Review inspection history and CSA BASIC percentiles in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System
Ask for a certificate of insurance direct from the insurer or broker
Require the tractor number and driver name before pickup on every load
Require GPS tracking — we provide it on every load at no upcharge
