T V M EXPRESS INC, operating under USDOT number 1460728, carries a maintenance-violation profile that places it in the upper tier of poorly rated carriers — ranking in the 79th percentile for maintenance violations among FMCSA-monitored carriers, meaning its rate of maintenance infractions exceeds the majority of comparable operators in federal records. Over the most recent 24-month period on file, FMCSA recorded 40 violations against this carrier, spanning unsafe-driving and hours-of-service categories in addition to the maintenance infractions that anchor its elevated percentile rank. That volume of violations across multiple regulatory categories reflects a broad compliance footprint, with inspectors flagging deficiencies in driver behavior, service-hour adherence, and equipment condition within a single reporting window.
The carrier's crash record during this period stands at one reported incident, with no fatalities and no injuries recorded by FMCSA. The single crash involved no nighttime component, with a reported night-crash share of zero. Separately, FMCSA records flag the carrier as underinsured, with a $750,000 liability limit on file alongside that one reported crash — the underinsured designation reflects FMCSA's own filing requirements based on cargo or operation type.
The 40 violations on file, spread across unsafe-driving, hours-of-service, and maintenance categories, represent the dominant feature of this carrier's federal safety record — a compliance profile that distinguishes T V M EXPRESS INC from lower-violation peers across all three flagged domains.
If you were injured in a crash involving T V M EXPRESS INC, you may have legal options worth exploring with a qualified attorney who handles commercial trucking cases. An attorney can review the carrier's full FMCSA record, assess the circumstances of your incident, and advise you on next steps. Reaching out for a consultation is a straightforward way to understand what remedies may be available to you.

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.
