    Your telling me its just not greyhounds its all those buses .

    In the state of Michigan . the speed limit is 70 for cars and 55 for semi's on highways . those buses do about 90 miles per. :lol::lol:

    and the cops just sit there and watch them drive by . its like they worked out a deal :o

    Arlan Snider, who was traveling from Phoenix to Sacramento to visit his mother, said he was asleep in the middle section of the bus when the wreck happened. He awoke to the smell of smoke and injured passengers around him.

    "I woke up on the floor of the bus and started helping people off the bus," Snider, 41, who escaped uninjured, said after arriving at Sacramento's bus terminal.



    how the HELL do you wake up at that point... or should i rephrase, how the HELL do you sleep through hitting an SUV, an embankment, clipping another car, going over a cliff, and hitting a tree... only to wake up when it was time to get off :shock:

    Maybe he got knocked out while sleeping, and awoke afterwards... :)

    horrible sad.

    but seems par for the course. i am extremely familiar with greyhound having taken trips from oregon to california several times, greyhound cross country from oregon to virginia, and then trips within oregon, eugene to portland and the like. eugene to seattle.

    when i was on the oregon to virginia trip one time the bus driver called out to the passengers and asked how we would get to such and such a road or intersection. he was lost.

    a couple years back in vancouver a greyhound passenger murdered another passenger on the bus, and started eating him. evidently not one passenger noticed any of this.

    its a cheap way to travel, which is why i use it, but if I had the money i would never take greyhound again.
