U.S. Xpress Accident and Lawsuit Information

Examples of U.S. Xpress accidents include the following:

  • In Lake County, Illinois, a U.S. Xpress truck rear-ended a car while moving westbound on a section of highway under construction. The four passengers of the car all suffered major injuries: two adults sustained back and hip injuries, one suffered a knee injury and one child suffered a closed head injury. All required surgery.1
  • In Decatur, Alabama, a U.S. Express truck veered into oncoming traffic on a wet roadway, causing a three car collision. The three vehicles caught fire, and two people were injured.  When our law firm is retained to represent a victim of a truck accident, we hire experts to reconstruct the accident and determine who was at fault.2
  • In La Salle County, Illinois, a father and daughter were killed when a tractor-trailer driven by an employee of U.S. Xpress hit their car from behind and rode over it, crushing the car. The car had been stopped in a work zone. The mother sued, claiming that the truck driver was irresponsible by not observing the instructions for the work zone and for reaching for a cigar while driving.3
