bus driver is facing a criminal charge after fatally striking a pedestrian, the second death linked to her job behind the wheel.
Janice Bauer, 67, was crossing a downtown street during a green light on June 2 when a bus hit her while making a left turn.“This case is tragic on every level,” prosecutor Kym Worthy said.It’s not the first fatality linked to her driving. The city settled a lawsuit for $4.
“She killed a man and was allowed to get back behind a wheel. In what world is that OK?” said attorney James Harrington, who represented Davis’ family. Johnson was fired after the death of Bauer, said Mikel Oglesby, executive director of Detroit transit. “We have been engaged in a full review of Ms. Johnson’s record and of all related departmental policies and procedures,” Oglesby said. “Once that review is completed, we will be better positioned to respond to questions.”
