Good morning everyone, just finished cleaning off the vehicles and blowing out the driveway again. It's hard to say how much we got this time because of the drifting. It's blowing like mad out there now and still snowing lightly. I will wait until tomorrow to clean the roofs off the storage tent and shed again and maybe bank the side of the house with snow

Hello Shaun,Grant, Steve, John, Perry and all who lurk here.
More real winter weather, no snow but cold and quite windy.
Finally after many court delays the Humboldt Bronco team tragedy concludes just as the trail begins:

It did get dragged out for a while, it`ll be interesting to see what sentence he gets. I'd hate to be the judge in this trial.

Good afternoon everyone

1 thing that helps in this case is that it wasn't a deliberate act but what will make it difficult is deciding how to judge the negligence and consequences. The driver will decide his own fate but a lot of people will always think he got off to easy.

My understanding is that he blew the stop sign at high speed either deliberately by being in a hurry to make up time or by not paying attention but I don't know enough details to be sure. As well lack of proper training and experience could be a big factor too.

Happy Hump Day Mornin'all. That driver's boss is in a lot of trouble. He'll be seeing Jail time too. A related scenario happened in Ontario a year or so ago. The owner of the company pushed his driver's beyond the hrs of service rules, and was implicated. He got a big jail tern, and fined heavily. Have a great day guy's.
