Another Tunica Casino Bush Crash!
Wow, for the second time in less than six months a casino bus in Tunica, Mississippi has been involved in a crash with another vehicle.
According to the report from WREG here in Memphis nine out of the fifteen passengers who were riding in a casino bus on Highway 61 in Tunica county were injured when their bus collided with a car. The accident occured in the middle of the day on Sunday.
Who is at fault here? It's hard to say for sure without knowing any facts but I can tell you that when the casino takes on the responsibility of transporting customers they take on liability regarding anything that happens to them while on the bus. And if the driver of the other car that was involved in the accident was negligent and at fault then they would be responsible as well.
Was the crash caused by someone who wasn't paying attention? Were they talking on the phone, text messaging someone or playing with their radio? We may never know. But what we do know is that now nine passengers on the bus have been hurt as well as the driver of the car and the passenger in the car. A total of eleven people have had their lives changes in a matter of seconds.
Rember when you're driving always pay attention to your surroundings. In this case obviously someone was asleep-at-the-wheel and now serious injuries have occurred. Don't let this happen to you.
