BZGuy Posted July 23, 2010 Share #2 Posted July 23, 2010 Just goes to show...every schedule you pull out could be your last. Hopefully GLI will do something(even as trival as naming a bus after him) to honor this driver who gave his life to try and save the passengers. 32 safe years (roughly 2-3 million safe miles) deserves to be remembered. My heart goes out to all that lost somebody in this tragic accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
553 Bridgeton Posted July 23, 2010 Share #3 Posted July 23, 2010 So very sad. Whats even more sad MVC bought some small stupid ish up "State Department of Motor Vehicles records show Jewett received a ticket in 2008 for failing to register a vehicle" What in the hell does that have to do with the crash....

BZGuy Posted July 23, 2010 Share #4 Posted July 23, 2010 So very sad. Whats even more sad MVC bought some small stupid ish up "State Department of Motor Vehicles records show Jewett received a ticket in 2008 for failing to register a vehicle" What in the hell does that have to do with the crash.... Nothing. Just the usual bash the driver comment. As far as I'm concerned the guy died a hero,trying to save his passengers. Weirdly enough I saw that bus at the D.C. terminal 2 months ago. 30600 and 30601 are the only two D4500s that Greyhound USA has. They came with the purchase of TNM&O. (To the uninitiated that's Texas New Mexico and Oklahoma Coach Lines) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJokaPlaya Posted July 23, 2010 Author Share #5 Posted July 23, 2010 I didn't think it was a bash. I think the media was showing how good of a record he had, showing that he only had one blemish in his record - showing that he's that good yet he's still human IMO. Still, what a tragedy.

GojiMet86 Posted August 1, 2010 Share #8 Posted August 1, 2010 It's usually a drunk driver that's the cause of car accidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
