A lawyer for Sukhmander Singh of Adesh Deol Trucking pleaded guilty on his behalf in a Calgary court this morning to five charges.The charges included failing to keep a daily drivers log, neglecting to ensure his drivers complied with safety regulations, and having more than one daily logbook.Court documents showed the offences occurred between Jan. 1 and March 31 -- prior to the fatal crash on April 6.
Sixteen people were killed and 13 were injured in rural Saskatchewan when the Broncos junior hockey team bus and a semi owned by Singh collided at an intersection. The driver, Jaskirat Singh Sidhu, was sentenced on Friday to eight years in prison on 29 dangerous driving charges. Court heard during his sentencing hearing that Sidhu was an inexperienced driver who had been on the road for only three weeks.
He had worked with another driver for two weeks and had been on his own for just a few days before he missed a stop sign and drove into the path of the bus.
Would the Humboldt catastrophe have happened if the driver of the truck had been born and raised in Canada?
People need advanced 'trucker training' to know NOT to go through a STOP🛑SIGN? Isn't this the most basic of the rules of the road in the West?
You are as guilty as the driver but you get off since you are only the owner of the truck company and didn't keep track of records correctly. 👍 You are free to be with your family.
