Why Carrier Vetting Is Critical for Logistics Risk Management

June 16, 2025

Carrier vetting failures expose shippers to legal and safety risks. Learn how Load Secure strengthens your logistics risk management process.

Carrier Safety Is Declining

Today’s transportation network faces rising safety concerns. Nearly 4% of truck drivers lack a valid commercial driver’s license (CDL). Even worse, 56% of trucks fail roadside inspections, and 20% are placed out of service. These are not isolated incidents. They reveal a growing weakness in logistics risk management that affects your freight, your business, and your brand.

Shippers Face Growing Legal Liability

Shippers are no longer protected by assumption. Courts are now holding them liable for using unsafe or unqualified carriers. If your company cannot prove due diligence, it may face lawsuits, penalties, or loss of contracts. In today’s legal climate, logistics risk management must include verifying licensing, insurance, and safety scores every single time.

Load Secure Protects Your Operation

To close the gaps, One Logistics Network developed Load Secure. This technology helps shippers take control of logistics risk management through real-time tools. It verifies identity and licensing, monitors safety records, and tracks insurance compliance. Every action is documented, giving your team faster, smarter, and safer decision-making capabilities.

Avoid the Costs of Inaction

One mistake can destroy customer trust. Bad carriers put freight, contracts, and reputations at risk. Proactive logistics risk management is no longer optional—it is critical. Load Secure helps shippers stay compliant, avoid liability, and protect long-term relationships.

Don’t wait for a costly mistake.
