Wayward Philadelphia Bus Kills
Four Philadelphia passengers including a college student from Pennsylvania and a woman from South Jersey as well as two international passengers were killed over the weekend when a double-decker bus struck a railroad bridge in upstate New York on its way to Toronto.
Twenty passengers suffered injuries as well.
The bus driver got lost in the Syracuse suburbs while looking for the bus depot. The driver was using his personal GPS unit for directions which didn't allot for bridge heights. The double-decker bus at 13 feet, 9 inches was taller than the bridge clearance of 10 feet 9 inches. The crash ripped the bus roof.
An investigation is underway.
