Utah Ski-bus accident spurs lawsuit on lacking Motorcoach Safety

Submitted by atu 1512 on October 15, 2009 - 7:32pm.

A lawsuit that names MCI as one of the defendants in a horrific motorcoach accident from Jan.6, 2008 near the Four Corners section of Utah is bringing attention to the motorcoach industry. 49 of 50 bus occupants were ejected from the crash, resulting in 9 mortalities, 40 injuries.

Attorneys for the victims and family members will cite the lack of reinforced roof, laminated windows, and safety belts on the motorcoach as primary reasons why the toll was so high. NTSB report cites the lack of seat belts/use of seat belts as a primary reason for the numerous ejections.
