As the source of this video said: "Watch for the bus" Typical of what happens on an ICE covered Seattle suburban street. Plenty of additional similar video...
DITTO Bob & Bill; I remember those holiday weekend fridays, way before the "Greyhound Side" when at peak times it took up to 20 minutes to get from the south...
He was bolting something up there from below the bus and then kept reaching in over the belts in back checking something. What does aturbo do? "Change your...
Hi Bob, That may be why I have seen some going back to the spring at Boston in a real sloppy white paint with the 85xxx fleet number, some with unusually large...
On several Thanksgiving Wednesdays and Sundays, when there was total gridlock inside and outside the building, one had to turn off the bus heating system to...
Hi Chris, A turbo is a turbocharger, a device installed on an engine, more common on the buses with the advent of the 6V and 8V92 engines which became common...
The reason the TNM&O and VT cars aren't being re-habbed along with the GL 102DL3's is because they were better maintained, but don't worry they're running in...

In NYC, the reasoning was: Sell the ticket, get them on a bus, get them out of the PABT. Didn't matter if the bus couldn't get the 3 blocks to the Lincoln...
With the dog, it's always been all about as*es in seats, no matter if the equipment is fit to run. One thing with my buses is we do proper PM and we fix what a...
This would be a safety director's nightmare. At 6 PM you wouldn't expect driver fatigue out of a high seniority 29 year experienced driver. He obviously wasn't...
In a diesel turbocharger, there is a bearing between the exhaust side which powers the turbo-charger & the impeller blades, if oil doesn't circulate in the...
Or maybe the oil pan gasket blew. Who knows until you crawl under the thing. Obviously, if the mechanic brought a driver with him and he drove it home, it...

Good Deal. Nothing wrong with that. You can sleep at night. Chris "Change your Thoughts,Change your World" NVP Chris Milian www.photosfromonhigh.com ...
I'm familiar with the highway and area where this happened, and also with the ilk of pulp wood trucks that operate there. Most of those pulp trucks operate ...
Hi Jon, It is sad to read. Right now only questions about both vehicle operators. As for the bus driver, one would think he was real old school, in terms of...
You're probably right Jon, but let's not be too quick to judge. Functionally asleep is a safety term we use often. I have a video I show drivers at least once...
Friends, The sight of that accident in SC is sickening. The mangled driver compartment. Severed Arm. Looking at the truck, with no splash-guards/fenders...
Reflecting some. I had a similar situation a few years ago with one of my own buses 12 miles north of Ft. Stockton, TX. On the surface it appeared to be driver...
Well said Bill. I tend to look at accidents on the side of my driver since I hire them for their abilities. Not saying that they are infallible, but accidents...
After viewing this, obviously the GH driver is wrong. The fog line is to the left of the accident, meaning that the truck was on the highway shoulder at...
If anybody hasn't seen the video "A Driver's Story" I'll make copies of it for you. It;s heart wrenching, but this accident makes me think of it. We get too...
It is dark here at 6:00pm now. The junction of I26 and I95 is at Mile Marker 86 which is where this is supposed to have happened. I would ASSUME that since...
well again, after seeing photos, the truck is outside of the fogline and the bus impacted it straight on. Whether the truck was broke down or the driver of the...
I'm going to say, and this is because of the limited photo information I have, is that the truck was moving on the shoulder of the highway. If it had been...
Reviewing this video once again, I notice the hazard flashers are on on the bus. I doubt the driver turned them on after impact, so I'm going to to go on a...
