XNG CNG Tractor Trailer Crashes, Closes Section of I-295 in Maine

An unfortunate incident to report. Yesterday morning, a compressed natural gas (CNG) tractor trailer registered to and owned by Xpress Natural Gas (XNG), based in Montrose, Pennsylvania, hit a patch of snow, lost control, struck a barrier, bounced off, and struck the median barrier, causing the trailer to detach. The trailer landed on the rear of a 2016 Hyundai Sonata in the northbound passing lane, which caused both to flip and come to rest facing south. This all happened on Interstate 295 in Yarmouth, Maine, closing that section of the interstate. 1/19/24 UPDATE: The driver of the XNG truck has been ticketed by Maine State Police for drifting out of his lane in a construction zone. See below.
