The 53-seater coach was en route from Shanghai to Yingshang county in Anhui when it hit the truck, which was loaded with bricks, on Hefei-Huainan Expressway at 3:45 am, according to an initial investigation by the Hefei authority.
The coach's first five rows of seats were crushed and buried under fallen bricks from the truck.
All the casualties were on the coach. Among the injured, three are in critical condition.
Police said the coach was traveling illegally. Since last year, coaches are not allowed to provide long-distance passenger services on expressways between 2 and 5 am to prevent severe road accidents.
