Kin Yiu Cheung, 37, of New York is still slated to be tried in January on four felony counts of involuntary manslaughter. Each of those charges carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison.                                                                                              

According to AP, Cheung has admitted to authorities that he fell asleep while driving May 31, when he was driving a group from Greensboro, N.C., to New York City. The bus went off Interstate 95 near Richmond, struck an embankment and rolled over. There were 60 people onboard.

Cheung worked for the discount bus line Sky Express, which transportation officials were in the process of closing down. But they had given the bus company a 10-day extension to appeal a failing safety rating.

As of Monday authorities were looking for witnesses to the fatal crash, which took place Saturday night near Cle Elum and involved not only the bus but several other vehicles.

A married couple on the bus, Ciro Astudillo,  51, and his wife Virginia Ocamposoriano, 45, of Pasco, Wash., died in the accident.

A man who owned a GMC pick-up truck involved in the accident, Jeffrey Irmer, 24, of Spokane was airlifted for treatment at a local hospital. More than a half dozen other people were sent to other hospitals or medical facilities for treatment. 

According to press accounts of the accident, the GMC truck was on the right shoulder of eastbound I-90, broken down, just as the bus was traveling in the right eastbound lane of the highway. The bus tried to change lanes, and in the process ran a Hyundai Elantra off the road. 

The bus driver then lost control of the bus and struck the pickup truck, with the bus flipping on its side.

A 27-year-old woman who was in the Hyundai along with her daughter survived.

The bus was transported fans who were on their way home from a Mexico-Ecuador soccer game in Seattle back to Moses Lake.

Elmer Schulman, a 67-year-old Pasco resident, was driving the bus and was uninjured.

The accident is still under investigation.

The World Wide Tours bus was traveling on Interstate 95 in the Bronx, on its way from the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut, at about  5:30 a.m. It was en route to Chinatown in Manhattan.

The bus driver, 40-year-old Ophadell Williams, told police he lost control when a tracter trailer swerved in his path, clipped the bus and then drove away. Police are investigating that assertion, according to The New York Times.

Police have taken custody of a trailer in Long Island and a tracter in Westchester County, bringing them to Farmington, L.I., to figure out if they were involved in the crash.    

The bus, which was traveling at a high speed, turned over on its side and skidded along a guardrail. It then hit a pole that was holding a large sign that marked the Hutchinson River Parkway exit. 

“The pole burst through the front window and sheared the bus in half laterally, from front to back, along the passenger window line,” according to The Times.

World Wide Tours issued expressed condolences and sympathy for those killed or injured in the accident. The Times reported that the bus company had recently been cited by federal regulators for fatigued drivers, but that its overall safety record was satisfactory.

The accident took place just before 8 a.m. in Savannah, N.Y., which is about 30 miles west of Syracuse. The two students who were most badly injured in the crash, an 11-year-old boy and a girl, were sitting in the front of the Clyde-Savannah Central School District bus.

The two seriously hurt children were reportedly trapped in the bus for half an hour, and the bus driver was stuck in there for an hour, according to AP.

The front of the bus sustained severe damage, and 16 children were treated and released from a local hospital. The children with the most serious injuries were moved to a Rochester, N.Y., hospital.

The collision of the commuter bus in the central Ukraine and the train also seriously hurt at least 10 additional people, The New York Times reported Wednesday.

During the accident the train pushed the bus almost 100 feet down the tracks, and when it stopped the bus’s body was wrapped around the front of the locomotive.

The bus driver, whose identity wasn’t revealed, was in his 50s and had 36 years of experience as a bus driver, according to The Times.

Survivors of the crash said that the driver stopped at the train crossing, left the driver’s seat, and when the train appeared he drove forward, despite the screams of his passengers, The Times reported.

There was no gate at the crossing where the accident took place.

An investigation has been launched into the crash, and the government said it would pay the families of the victims $12,600 for their losses.

Eight investigators left Gray Summit last Friday to return to Washington. The group completed inspections of the buses, semi cab, and pick-up from the accident, and interviewed witnesses.

 The investigators also studied the layout of I-44 and warning signs leading up to a construction zone on I-44.

It could take as long as a year before the NTSB  releases its findings on the deadly accident that claimed the lives of a 15-year-old from St. James, Mo., and a 19-year-old from Sullivan, Mo.
