casualties: 47 total, 10 killed, 37 injured. Suspect driver at fault, unknown motive April 10, 2014California FedEx Truck Hits School Charter Bus In Orland, north of Sacramento California, FedEx semi-trailer truck on Interstate 5 crossed the grassy median. It apparently swerved as it sideswiped another car and rammed into a charter bus carrying high school students visiting a Humboldt State College preview from Los Angeles. Witnesses in the car that was nearly hit say they saw flames beneath the cab as the truck was already on fire, but investigators could not find evidence of that. Both vehicles burst into flames, and both drivers were killed. 10 were killed and 36 or 37 were injured. No cause or motive for the crash was revealed, as authorities were considering a lack of sleep, medical problem or mechanical failure. The FedEx truck driver Tim Evans taking goods from Sacramento to Weed and back, and another driver said he had seen a similar accident near the same location before.
In 2015, the investigation concluded that the driver of the semi truck was at fault for crossing the median into oncoming traffic, but could not explain the reason for the dangerous and unsafe maneuver. The truck was found to have no mechanical faults. A suicidal attack was apparent not ruled out, or considered as a possibility as the most likely and simplest explanation.
