‘It happened so fast’: Survivors of fatal B.C. bus rollover question why highway wasn’t closed
McCleland says he thinks his seatbelt saved his life. He says the road was “very slippery” and questions why anyone was out driving.
“It should have been closed and I think the driver, Ebus, should have recognized that the roads were terrible and that bus should not have been on the highway.” Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure, Rob Fleming issued a statement on Monday regarding the incident and ongoing work on highways. Highway maintenance crews continue to use all available equipment to plow, sand and salt highways, Fleming said.McCleland credits Emergency Management BC and the Best Western hotel in Merritt for helping people find a place to stay.He says Ebus has not reached out to him and he spent an hour trying to get through to the company to find out how he could get home, where his luggage is and to ask about reimbursement.
