Police may never be able to talk to driver of bus in deadly collision in Manitoba

WINNIPEG — Manitoba RCMP say they may never be able to talk to the driver of a bus involved in a crash that killed 17 people a year ago.

Supt. Rob Lasson says the driver continues to suffer severe medical issues, but would not go into detail to respect the driver’s privacy.

The bus, carrying seniors to a casino, collided with a semi-trailer as it was crossing the Trans-Canada Highway near Carberry, Man. last June.

Police say the semi-trailer had the right of way.
