๐ Tennessee against the country14 of 1,214.
Counted the same way.
Every state is read from the same nationwide FMCSA feeds and measured on the same four things, so these numbers say what separates Tennessee from the state next to it rather than describing something that would fit either.

Published Jul 29, 2026, covering Jul 20, 2026 to Jul 26, 2026. Average priority score 98 of 100 against 97 nationwide, 1 points above the country. Every ranked carrier in the country carries an official filing contact, so there is nothing to separate Tennessee on that count. A filing contact is the phone or email the carrier itself gave FMCSA, never a contact we claim to have verified on a website.
