When Doffy was contrling him with strings This man is not in control of the truck right now Thats a 7% slope hill, and he was legally doing 55 over a blind hill The bus technically shouldn't legally have a bus stop right there, cuz almost no commercial or military vehicle could stop in this situation with any load The judge would seriously say "im glad no one is hurt, but there is no fault on the trucker here". Had the kids been hit, the story changes cuz CDL handbook tells them to avoid the accident. And going off road, so please dont think thats the answer.
