Wyoming trucking authority and carrier risk data

Wyoming added 49 new USDOT numbers in September 2026, 0.3% of the national total and 41st of 51. That was up 58.1% from September 2025 (31). Over the 12 months to September 2026, Wyoming added 571, up 30.1% from the prior 12 months, ahead of the national change of +5.4%. That puts Wyoming 44th for the year with 0.3% of all new registrations. With monthly counts this small, single-month changes can swing widely.

Before FMCSA's legacy data froze on May 14, 2026, the legacy system recorded new operating authority grants for an average of 18 USDOT numbers a month in Wyoming (May 2025 to April 2026), 0.3% of the national total. In September 2026, Motus recorded 17, 0.3% of the national Motus count and 40th of 51. Relative to its legacy average, Wyoming's Motus count tracks the national pattern (95% of its legacy average, against 96% nationally).

Legacy data recorded an average of 19 involuntary revocations a month for USDOT numbers in Wyoming before the freeze. Since the cutover, Motus records involuntary suspensions instead: 4 took effect for USDOT numbers in Wyoming in September 2026 (38th of 51), and 18 over the last three months. Insurance filings were cancelled (not replaced) for an average of 54 USDOT numbers a month in Wyoming in the legacy data; Motus shows 6 in September 2026, a floor because Motus InsHist covers only authorities touched in Motus.

Of the 571 USDOT numbers added in Wyoming from October 2025 to September 2026, 23 (4.0%) list a phone or email shared with at least 3 other USDOT records, above the national rate of 2.3%. That rate ranks 1st of the 51 states (including DC) with at least 100 new registrants. 7 of the 23 sit in clusters of 51 or more records. Interpretation: a higher rate can reflect a few busy filing services serving the state, so it is a reason to look closer, not evidence of fraud.
