14 injured, 2 buses and light pole damaged, driver declared hero mechanical failure August 5, 2014 Times Square Double Deck Bus Crash Under Influence Drugs The driver of a double-decker Gray Line tour bus William Dalambert was arrested and charged with driving while under the influence of drugs. His bus entered the theater district at high speed and struck another parked double-decker bus, downing a light pole and injuring 14 in Times Square in New York City. The driver was previously arrested in 2008 for issues with child support payment. An investigation determined he actually steered the bus away from a crowded sidewalk when a mechanical failure caused his bus to lurch forward. Police failed him on scene on a sobriety test, but be passed a full drug and alcohol screen test performed later.
October 21 2014 update Times Square Bus Driver Goes From Suspect to Hero An investigation into a New York bus driver who was arrested after he smashed into a lamp post and knocked it down in busy Times Square this summer has determined no charges will be filed because the driver was actually a hero. "We have concluded that a mechanical failure caused the bus to lurch forward, at which time the driver steered the bus away from a crowded sidewalk, thereby averting serious injury to those on the sidewalk," the Manhattan prosecutor's office said today.
