Tour Bus almost cut in two
Did any of you see the tour bus accident at Merced, California where the bus run into a metal light pole and the pole did not give and almost cut the tour bus in two? Looked like a Prevost tour bus.

I bet speed had a lot to do with the accident, I have seen these type bus's doing 75 to 80 mph, many even pass me in my motorhome really fast while I am doing 62 mph, just came back from Cali over a month ago and those charter bus's fly down the highways..
You would think since truckers and trailer pullers in Cali have a 55 mph limit you would think charter bus's would also have a limit of 65 mph but they don't.
They do have a limit of 65 if that's what the freeway is posted. I believe that section of 99 right there is posted at 65. It may be 70, but I think it is 65.
But what about I-5 or I-15, and other places as well like Utah that has 80 mph, what I guess I did not get across on my post is why no limit on tour bus mph, I have personally seen tour bus's from Cali to Vegas driving over 75 mph, maybe that's why you wont see me in one.
