Questions about carrier_vetting_evidence_pack
Produce an auditable Carrier Vetting Pack for a freight broker. Resolve a US motor carrier by USDOT, MC, or legal name, then return the GO/CAUTION/NO-GO verdict, the exact FMCSA authority/insurance/safety evidence, sanctions/court/federal-award checks, source coverage and failures, retrieval timestamp, primary-source links, a versioned evidence receipt fingerprint, and a broker follow-up checklist.
