Do not book until these are resolved · 3 signals

- Operating authority is inactive (last known)Without active authority the company may not haul or broker interstate freight for hire.
- 5 other companies list the same addressCommon for registered-agent offices, mail drops and truck yards. Confirm the company operates from where it says.
- Vehicle out-of-service rate well above the state average53.8% vs Tennessee average 23.6%.
No cargo cover filed with FMCSA
Not a live check. FMCSA has not published a Motus record for this carrier, so authority and insurance show the last known status from May 14, 2026. Confirm on Motus before booking.
What to verify next
- Confirm authority and insurance on the official Motus record: our copy is the last known status from May 14, 2026. Safety record: SAFER.

How these rates are calculated
Period: Oct 20, 2024 – Oct 20, 2026. Vehicle rate = vehicle inspections with a vehicle out-of-service order ÷ vehicle inspections (levels 1, 2, 5 and 6). Driver rate uses levels 1, 2, 3 and 6. The Tennessee average covers 76,670 vehicle and 133,829 driver inspections of all Tennessee-based carriers in this period. It mixes every type of operation, so compare with care; rates based on a handful of inspections say little. FMCSA's own SMS measures are weighted differently: SMS profile · SAFER snapshot
Violations in FMCSA's SMS last 24 months
34 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 19 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.
Why is this different from the 42 violations above?
The inspections section's number counts every violation written on the inspection reports in our Oct 20, 2024 – Oct 20, 2026 window. The SMS count comes from FMCSA's own monthly SMS snapshot, which uses its own 24-month window and only the violations it scores. Both are FMCSA figures; they measure different things.

Questions about Tikhonov Enterprises LLC
What does Tikhonov Enterprises LLC's operating authority allow?
FMCSA records show no active operating authority for Tikhonov Enterprises LLC (MC1278160), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.
Which information about Tikhonov Enterprises LLC is old or missing?
Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. No insurance filings were found in the public data. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe.
What should I verify before booking Tikhonov Enterprises LLC?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 3678150. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (629) 262-0214, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1278160, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
