Bus Driver Pleads Guilty in Fatal Crash | Buffalo News

from Buffalo News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A tour bus driver pleaded guilty to five counts of criminally negligent homicide after a deadly crash on I-90 last August that killed five and injured many more. The driver, Bin Shao, lost control near Pembroke while allegedly distracted by a water bottle that rolled under his foot — a bizarre chain of events that led to catastrophe. Facing 1.5 to 4 years in prison, Shao expressed deep remorse, while prosecutors dropped manslaughter charges to avoid implying intent. The case underscores the fragility of road safety and the lasting pain for grieving families. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
