irv Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Looking at these pics of these young men and the training staff who have passed is super tough! My son is the same age of some of these boys and is an avid hockey player who has rode many busses playing the sport he loves. I cannot begin to think what these young men's parents/families are going through! I don't even know where you'd begin to start dealing with something like this.

" NEW Truck involved in Humboldt Broncos crash belongs to Calgary company Driver of the truck was not injured in April 6 crash that claimed 15 lives CBC News · Posted: Apr 10, 2018 4:24 PM MT | Last Updated: 34 minutes ago The transport truck involved in a crash with the Humboldt Broncos bus sits at Astro Towing in Saskatoon. (Jason Warick/CBC) The truck involved in a Saskatchewan crash that killed 15 hockey players and injured 14 more belonged to a company based in Calgary. A spokesperson for the Alberta Transportation said the company, Adesh Deol Trucking Ltd., has an unblemished safety record in the province since starting in September 2017, with no violations and two inspections. Based on the Saskatchewan collision, however, the company's safety certificate has been suspended. 'GoFundMe CEO blown away by Humboldt Broncos campaign Organ donation by Humboldt Broncos player inspires others Brian Mason, Alberta's transportation minister, said it's standard procedure. "This is automatic in a serious case like this and the licence of the company to operate has been suspended pending the outcome," he said. "Primarily the investigation is being conducted by the Saskatchewan Department of Transportation and the Saskatchewan RCMP and we don't want to say anything that could interfere with that." Alberta Transportation will conduct its own probe, but that can't be completed until the Saskatchewan investigation is done. "We can look at the stuff we can look at, but of course they have the log books and so on and will have them for some time ... they not available to us," said Mason. Death toll rises to 15 in Humboldt Broncos junior hockey team crash The company does have one Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance inspection defect from the Northwest Territories for violating the federal hours of service regulation. "This is a minor infraction," said a spokesperson for Alberta Transportation. "If it happened in Alberta, the sanction might be to ensure that the driver took time to rest." The company operates two trucks. The driver of the truck was not injured in the April 6 crash that claimed 15 lives and injured 14 people. The driver was detained by police for a short time in the immediate aftermath of the crash, then was released and received psychological support.

I read that it takes several days to get identification through dental records, and that all the players had their hair bleached or dyed blonde for some playoff ritual. I can understand how a mistake like that could have happened considering how many casualties there were, but I really feel for the families involved. When joy turns to grief for one and grief turns to joy for the other. So sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had drivers involved in fatalities they were not at fault for and I don't think they are ever the same. I can't imagine being responsible for it.
