December 2, 200718 yr Is there no end to these tragedies. Maybe it is time that the roads were policed in a proper manner.My deepest sympathies to all. That would first require a proper police force where each individual wouldn't be concerned about personal gain and profit while on duty.

Perhaps I missed something, but I don't see where it says that the bus had a police escort. Are you talking about other incidents where a police escort was somehow involved? Regards, -oev
