Unsafe charter bus lines cause many bus accident deaths, injuries
Take the Jan. 2, 2008 Texas bus accident in which one Houston passenger was killed and 17 were injured seriously, with two of them losing arms in the crash. The driver fell asleep at the wheel, ran off U.S. 59, over-corrected and flipped the bus on its side, where it was hit by a pickup truck. Again, a complex and catastrophic traffic accident happened very quickly. |
As a vintage bus line slogan goes, “Leave the driving to us.” Trouble is, when you do that you also leave safety precautions to bus lines, and safety doesn’t always lead their to-do list.
