ILIM EXPRESS INC (USDOT 3449311) carries a federal safety record built around a high-volume violation history and a crash count that places it firmly in the attention of anyone researching this carrier's background. Over the most recent twenty-four-month period on file, FMCSA records show 157 violations logged against this carrier — a figure that ranks it in the upper quartile of carriers for maintenance violations, meaning it scores worse than a substantial majority of its peers in that category. The violation profile extends beyond maintenance alone: the record also includes unsafe-driving and controlled-substances violations, broadening the range of compliance concerns documented in federal data.
The crash record for ILIM EXPRESS INC stands at 21 total crashes on file, with 6 injuries reported and no fatalities recorded. Nearly half of those crashes — 46.7 percent — occurred during nighttime hours, meaning crashes concentrated in low-light, overnight conditions represent a meaningful share of this carrier's incident history. A 21-crash total itself represents a high-frequency record relative to the carrier population FMCSA tracks.
Separately, the record shows FMCSA records flag the carrier as underinsured, with a $1,000,000 liability limit on file alongside those 21 crashes and 6 reported injuries.
The combined record — a high violation count spanning unsafe-driving and controlled-substances categories, a maintenance rank placing the carrier among worse-performing peers, and 21 crashes with injuries on file — reflects the full scope of what public FMCSA data documents for this operator.
If you or someone you know was injured in a crash involving ILIM EXPRESS INC, the details in this federal record may be relevant to a legal claim. An attorney experienced in commercial trucking cases can review the specifics of the incident alongside the carrier's safety history.

This record is attached to your submission — your attorney starts with the evidence already pulled.
Why timing matters
State law may give you years to file a claim — but the evidence often doesn't last that long. Dashcam and onboard data can be overwritten within days. Federal rules require carriers to keep a driver's electronic logs (ELD) for only six months; after that, deletion is lawful. A preservation letter from an attorney puts the carrier on formal notice — destroying evidence after that point risks court sanctions.
