The driver in a New York bus crash that killed 15 people had his driver’s license suspended 18 times and was fired from two previous transportation jobs, according to investigative documents released today.
The driver, Ophadell Williams, was also involved in an accident on the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway three days before the March 12, 2011, crash, in which a World Wide Travel of Greater New York bus returning from the Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut flipped and hit a sign post, shearing off the roof.
