The Supreme Court’s Montgomery decision gives brokers more reason to scrutinize carrier safety practices. Here’s how fleets can turn documented safety performance into a competitive advantage.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What happens when a broker asks you to prove that you\u2019re a safe carrier? Saying you’re a safe carrier is easy. Proving it is harder. Can you pull up the safety events? Show the video clips, the driver’s response, the coaching that followed, and the corresponding hours-of-service record? Because brokers now have more reason to ask those questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On May 14, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously in Montgomery v. Caribe Transport II, LLC<\/a> that federal law does not block state negligent-hiring lawsuits against freight brokers. That means a broker may have to defend how it chose a carrier after a crash. The ruling doesn’t make brokers automatically liable when a carrier they hired has a problem, but it means those negligent-hiring claims can proceed in state court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This puts more pressure on brokers to examine carrier safety practices, and on carriers to demonstrate those practices. And that’s where safety data becomes more than a compliance record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
