Driver in Texas bus crash was involved in fatal 1998 accident, records show

Source: CNN

The driver in Thursday's bus crash in Texas was investigated but not indicted in a fatal accident 15 years ago, according to court documents.

Two people were killed and dozens rushed to hospitals after a charter bus bound for Oklahoma overturned on a Dallas-area turnpike Thursday morning.

The driver is 65-year-old Loyd Rieve, the Texas Department of Public Safety said. He was investigated in a 1998 accident, but a grand jury declined to indict him on a charge of criminally negligent homicide.

In that accident, Rieve was driving a bus that ran over a good Samaritan helping at an accident scene.
