Bus Driver Drives into a House on His First Route

In June 2013, Frances Artey drove his first in-service bus for the Worcester Regional Transit Authority into a house. 

He knocked it ten feet off its foundation as the bus slammed into it at 38 mph. 

According to the data recorder, the brakes were not applied. 

The front end of the bus completely entered the kitchen; no one in the house or on the bus was seriously injured, except for Artey. 

It took over an hour to pull him from the wreck and several hours to remove the bus itself. 

Artey had previously been a school bus driver without any incidents. The house had to be demolished and Artey was charged with negligent driving.
