Buses should be built to railroad safety standards and should be designed to survive a collision with a 90 MPH train filled with crude oil.ROAR |

That would mean $$$$$ additional costs to make such a bus and that would be an additional cost to towns and cities that rely on buses. Taxes would go UP to cover additional cost. Where was the crossing gates? I see none in there. |

The OC Transpo driver likely had a medical emergency beforehand...based on the pictures, the bus impacted the train and not the other way around. |

Blacking out before reaching the crossing is the only sane explanation. Buses are required to come to a full stop at railroad crossings. |
