W. Keith Rd. Apartment/townhouse fire | Transit driver fined " By lan Noble . News Reporter A B.C. Transit bus dri- '. ver was fined $1,000 and saddled with six Me demerit points Monday in provincial court. But 49-year-old Ronald Wayne Turner, who was found guilty of driving with- out due care and attention ‘ last month, escaped a licence suspension and he’s been given the green light to keep ‘driving for B.C. Transit. “The fine and demerit ‘points relate to a June | inci- dent in which 68-year-old Ruth * Erickson of North Vancouver was crushed to death under the back wheel of «a bus seconds after getting off the bus at East 3rd Street in North Vancouver. Trial judge Ellen Burdett ruled that Turner was negli- genet because he failed to check his right outside mirror before moving the bus. Had he done so, said Judge Burdett, he would have noticed Erickson, who had apparently fallen on her back on the road after getting off the bus. A conviction for driving without due care and atten- tion carries an automatic six demerit points, a possible linc and a possible licence suspen- psit, spokesman Trace Acres said an inte! investigation and a 5 Turner’s bus driving record leave the transit corporation confident that safety will not be compromised by ‘Turner's return behind the wheel. 100-blk.
