Drunken Bus Driver Kills Tourist

May 10, 2011

As a bus accident attorney, I see reckless bus operation often-but most companies and drivers are safe.

The May 7 death of a New York man confirms the need to enforce safety to protect the public. On Saturday, a tourist was stuck and dragged as the bus turned W. 47th St. onto Ninth Ave.

With 40 passengers on board, the driver had vodka in his travel mug, a bottle in the luggage compartment, a history of DWI arrests and a blood-alcohol level twice the legal limit for commercial drivers.
