# 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. The receipt helps detect accidental changes after export; it is not tamper-proof storage or a compliance certification. This is the evidence-first companion to carrier_vetting_score: use it when a human reviewer needs to save or forward the record. It is an analytical aid, not a substitute for direct FMCSA insurance and authority verification.
