Truck Accident on I-20 in Lexington County, South Carolina

Truck accidents happen all the time, but thankfully, injuries do not always result when truck drivers cause a mishap. On Thursday, June 29, James Jett, of Elgin, South Carolina was driving too fast for conditions and lost control of his 18 wheeler. Jett was leaving U.S. Highway 1 to get onto I-20 West when his rig overturned due to his excessive speed, according to the Highway Patrol.

Jett's truck spilled scrap metal across the roadway, causing the road to be partially blocked for a time Thursday morning.
