Ontario bus driver acquitted in fatal Mississauga crash

A judge in Ontario has found a Miway bus driver not guilty in a dangerous driving case linked to a fatal multivehicle crash in Mississauga in June 2023. The collision happened at Derry and Rexwood roads around 9:25 a.m., when the bus struck several vehicles stopped at a red light. Sharron Williams, who was in a Nissan Rogue, died and several others were injured. In his ruling, Justice David E. Harris said the cause of the crash was still unclear. He noted that brake failure remained a possible explanation and said the Crown had not proved beyond a reasonable doubt that the driver’s actions caused the death. Williams’ son said afterward that he did not believe justice was served.
