Thanks for that post. Sometimes the hatred for Mexican immigrants on this forum disgusts me. That driver was NOT to blame for the fire, or for the oxygen tanks exploding.
HEre we go...
I love it when good Freepers stand up for good people.
I'm right with you.
I posted what I heard and didn't editorialize...
I also said that I heard he saved some of the passengers...
but I am the one that originally posted it...but NOT to bash his ethnicity...
However, the bus lines, GLOBE...I think, is also supposedly in trouble from past problems...and maybe on of them is hiring people that maybe cannot communicate well enough---that when told a brake needs to be fixed...he doesn't understand well enough and doesn't fix it...
Just stuff that the Dallas PD...are questioning tonight..
I report ya'll decide.
Is the final report on root cause out? I'd heard there was a mechanical issue that teh driver was apprised of, by a mechanic, and thatteh drive chose to hit the road after being apprised of the risk. Not sure what I'd heard is reliable, but AFAIK, the root cause and aggravating circumstances haven't been reported - if they have even been determined.
