This is an ongoing issue that we have been watching for the last 3 days and Mr. Hannan's expose' will be in the Sunday Times Union for those who want more details.   If you will go to the link for the article, there is also a video there done by Mr. Hannan.

Where my concern lies is that these folks basically broke the law and didn't tell the employer they were doing so which left us liable for any one who got hurt, killed or any accident of any kind. So, the question is, what will they do the next time, since 3 of the 4 were hired back? In the future where is the incentive for anyone who drives a city bus to be honest? There is none, because JTA has just passed the word that there is no problem, and you won't even lose your job. Is that supposed to make the folks riding these buses feel safer or more secure and feel comfortable that the driver of the bus is properly licensed and insured? This is NOT a good situation at all, and it sends the WRONG message.

 

Fourth bus driver remains suspended until he gets new license.

The Jacksonville Transportation Authority has reinstated three of the four bus drivers who were suspended earlier this week for not having valid drivers licenses.

JTA spokesman John Finotti said bus drivers Eric Marshall, Errick Fryer and James Davis all had issues with their insurance that led to their licenses being suspended. Those issues have been corrected, and the licenses for all three are now valid.

Anthony Barnes remains suspended without pay because his license had expired. He is expected to be reinstated when he gets a new license.

JTA has been doing driver’s license checks of their employees this week in reaction to a Times-Union investigation into the criminal and driving records o.... Those checks revealed four drivers without valid licenses.

It's not clear if the drivers will face punishment for driving without valid licenses. JTA is now reviewing its policies for how to deal with these issues, and expects to put new standards in place in the next few weeks, Finotti said.

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
