Days with no filing on record

None found: in the filings above that list both dates, each cancellation date is met by another filing of the same cover effective on or before it.

Worked out from the two tables above: the time between one filing's cancellation date (Motus InsHist - All With History) and the next effective date for the same docket and cover (Motus InsHist - All With History or Motus Insur - All With History). Excess layers are left out. FMCSA's own insurance-related suspensions are in the authority history.
