摘要: On June 23, 2002, a 55-passenger Motor Coach Industries, Inc., motor coach was traveling eastbound on Interstate 90 near Victor, New York. As it approached the Victor Exit 45 ramp, the bust departed the road, struck a W-beam guardrail, dragging about 700 feet of it across the eastbound entrance ramp; vaulted over the entrance ramp, landing on the ramp's south side shoulder; and rolled 90 degrees onto its right side, sliding to rest. The guardrail dragged by the bus during the accident sequence struck three eastbound vehicles on the entrance ramp. Three occupants of these vehicles were uninjured, and six received minor injuries. Of the 48 people on the motor coach, 5 passengers were killed; the driver and 41passengers sustained injuries; and 1 passenger was uninjured. The safety issues discussed in this report are operator fatigue, motor coach crashworthiness, and the adequacy of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's oversight of and rating system for motor coach operations.
