So the first school bus to escape New Orleans and make it to safety in Texas was one that had been abandoned on a city street. A party of sodden citizens, ranging from the elderly to an eight-day-old baby, were desperate to get out, hopped aboard and got teenager Jabbor Gibson to drive them 13 hours non-stop to Houston. He'd never driven a bus before, and the authorities back in New Orleans may yet prosecute him. For rescuing people without a permit?

LOL! It wouldn't surprise me that what's left of the NO Law Enforcement will attempt to prosecute him...

The crime there is easy. It's a "taking personal responsibility" misdemeanor. It makes everyone else look bad and gets the masses thinking. Can't have that. Throw the book at him.
