EVANSVILLE, IN (WFIE) -

A lawsuit has been filed on behalf of three students who were in a tour bus crash in south-central Kentucky last week.

The lawsuit filed in Hart County Circuit Court alleges the driver may have violated federal regulations regarding the number of hours one can drive and was driving too fast on Kentucky 728.

A lawyer representing the victims says some adults on the bus called 911 to report the driver was speeding.

Police say only one of the 55 people aboard was seriously injured.

That tour bus was chartered out of New Image Travel, based in Evansville.
