License Suspended For Tire That Killed Officer

He got off easy. There was a trucker in Cincinnati some years back that had a tire completely come off and hit a car. Killed at least one person. If I remember right they got jail time.

 

Hold On, Article STATES "driver" isn't yet done with Outcome:

An investigation of the incident focused on the condition of the logging truck. A mechanic who had inspected the truck less than a month earlier had his license suspended as a result on the grounds that his inspection of the rig had been inadequate.
Since then, Willett has been charged with causing the death of a person while committing a traffic infraction, along with several trucking violations and operation of a defective vehicle. He will also have to pay a fine and his license will be suspended. He is due in court on August 19th.

 

yeah, like WTF, only a suspension..??

for like how long, 90 days?

should be permanent.

 

It says the incident in question happened in April 2019, over three years ago. And it's still not resolved, wow.

 

I once worked for a company that had old equipment, they put aluminum wheels next to steel,had the barrel nuts and turning would break them.
At least once a week you had to stop by a tire shop and have them fixed.
Company wouldn’t do anything but replace them when they broke, wouldn’t tell the new guys, you had to catch it.
