| 摘要： | At 10:50 a.m. on October 13, 2003, a 1992 Neoplan USA Corporation 49-passenger motor coach, owned and operated by the First Baptist Church of Eldorado, Texas was traveling eastbound on Interstate 20 near Tallulah, Louisiana. The motor coach, carrying 14 passengers, was en route from Shreveport, Louisiana to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, as part of a multi-city sightseeing tour that had originated in Eldorado. As the motor coach approached milepost 168, it drifted rightward from the travel lanes and onto the shoulder, where it struck the rear of a 1988 Peterbilt tractor semitrailer operated by Alpha Trucking, Inc., which was stopped on the shoulder at milepost 167.9. As both vehicles moved forward, the motor coach rotated clockwise slightly and the semitrailer rotated counter-clockwise slightly; the vehicles remained together. They traveled approximately 62 feet and came to rest, still oriented to the east, adjacent to the right side of the interstate on the outside shoulder. Eight motor coach passengers sustained fatal injuries, the motor coach driver and six passengers received serious injuries, and the Peterbilt driver was not injured. Major safety issues identified in this report include driver fatigue, the adequacy of State and Federal oversight of motor carriers, the identification and appropriate use of speed-restricted tires on motor coaches, criteria for State and Federal annual inspections of motor coach passenger seating anchorage points, and performance standards for motor coach passenger seating anchorages. |
