Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / Driving / December 2006Beer truck/school bus collision
Another alcohol-related accident: truck hits school bus. http://www.ktvotv3.com/Global/story.asp?S=5817586 Beer trucks, at least in my area are probably the worst MFFY-type drivers in the trucking industry. Granted, this wreck may have been the bus driver's fault, but I've had enough close calls with beer trucks to keep my eyes peeled. The citiation will probably go to the bus driver since it did happen a few miles from Crooksville, MO. Ladies and Gentlemen (and I use those words loosely), MLOM said in rec.autos.driving: > Another alcohol-related accident: truck hits school bus. > http://www.ktvotv3.com/Global/story.asp?S=5817586 [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > trucks to keep my eyes peeled.

BTW, what brand of piss-water was the truck hauling? > Another alcohol-related accident: truck hits school bus. > http://www.ktvotv3.com/Global/story.asp?S=5817586 [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > trucks to keep my eyes peeled.

Appears to be another case of a bus driver just assuming the traffic will slow down for him. Happens every day. > > Another alcohol-related accident: truck hits school bus. > > http://www.ktvotv3.com/Global/story.asp?S=5817586 [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > case of a bus driver just assuming the traffic will slow down for him. > Happens every day. Read the article again...the truck was hauling BEER! I've driven that route several times over the years; the intersection in the article happens to be in a stretch of US 63 that is posted 45 mph. It would be likely that the beer truck driver was speeding (I'm surprised you didn't bring that up). You know beer truck drivers; they just HAVE to make their deliveries so other people can get wasted and risk DUI. |
