U.S. Xpress, Inc.’s Post

Professional Driver Mark Traxler and his cute co-pilot Bailey love driving in our military trucks. We enjoy seeing our U.S. Xpress, Inc. military veterans take these special trucks all over the country. It makes it even more fun when you have a furry friend to ride along with you! 📸: Mark T.

Happy Independence Day! Today marks 248 years since the Declaration of Independence was signed and a spirit of freedom filled our country. While this historic and patriotic day is filled with fun celebration, take the time to reflect on those who have made our freedom possible. We cannot thank our troops and veterans enough for their service and sacrifices.

Whether you’re celebrating the 4th of July tomorrow with friends and family or out on the road, we encourage you to stay safe and smart. The roads will be busier than normal as many will travel to enjoy the day, so keep these tips in mind: • Allow extra time to get where you're going. • Be aware of increased law enforcement presence on the roads. • Be mindful of your speed, following distance, and changing weather conditions. • Make adjustments to create extra space between you and other vehicles. • Be on the lookout for distracted drivers.

As summer storms begin to brew, safety remains a top priority. It is important to stay informed and prepared for when intense storms strike. Creating a safety plan, preparing an emergency kit, and having a designated safe shelter are just a few of the ways you can promote safety for yourself and loved ones.

Today, we’re taking you behind the scenes from our recent photo shoot. Here’s a sneak peek of some of our newest equipment. 

With Independence Day just around the corner, we want to wish everyone safe travels and fun celebrations this week. The Fourth of July week marks one of the busiest travel seasons, so please remember to travel responsibly and be extra aware of your surroundings out on the road.
