J Ross Express Inc (USDOT 1202839) carries a federal safety record shaped by an authority revocation, an extended insurance gap, and violation counts that place it among the worst-scoring carriers in the country for maintenance compliance.

Beginning with the administrative record: FMCSA records show one prior authority revocation on file. Separately, the carrier's insurance history includes one coverage gap period, with the longest single lapse stretching 1,461 days — approximately four years during which no qualifying coverage was on file with FMCSA. That same record shows the carrier operating with a $1,000,000 liability limit and an FMCSA underinsured flag, alongside a total of three reported crashes involving one injury and no fatalities.

On the violation side, the picture is equally striking in its severity. Fifteen violations appear in the most recent twenty-four-month inspection window, spanning both maintenance and driver-fitness categories. The maintenance violation rate alone places J Ross Express Inc at the 99th percentile — ranking it among the very worst-scoring carriers nationwide for that category. A 99th-percentile maintenance rank means the carrier scores worse than nearly every other active carrier FMCSA evaluates. Driver-fitness violations compound that profile, indicating deficiencies not limited to equipment but extending to the fitness of personnel behind the wheel.

The crash record shows three total incidents. All three occurred during daylight hours — the carrier's night-crash share is zero percent — meaning the documented crash exposure is concentrated entirely in daytime operations. One of those three crashes involved a reported injury. No fatalities appear in FMCSA crash records for this carrier.

Taken together, the public record for USDOT 1202839 reflects a carrier with a revocation on file, a multi-year insurance gap, a top-percentile maintenance violation rate, driver-fitness violations, and an underinsured flag — all verifiable through federal data.

If you or someone you know was injured in a crash involving J Ross Express Inc, the details documented in this federal safety record may be relevant to a legal claim. An attorney experienced in commercial trucking cases can review the FMCSA data and help you understand your options. You are encouraged to seek a consultation as soon as possible, as legal deadlines apply in injury cases.

This record is attached to your submission — your attorney starts with the evidence already pulled.

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.
