On December 14, 2017, a collision between a school bus and a TER at a level crossing left six dead and 17 injured among college students in Millas (Eastern Pyrenees). Monday, September 19, the trial of the 53-year-old bus driver opens in Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhone)as journalist Noémie explains Dahanlive on site: “An extraordinary trial, since 400 people are expected. (…) Facing the driver, 123 civil parties, and among them, the parents of these little victims.”

“The key to this trial is to know whether, in fact, the barriers of this level crossing were raised or lowered. It has been five years since the bus driver claims that they were raised, and that it is for that which she undertook. It is an extraordinary trial since it will also be broadcast live from Perpignan (Pyrénées-Orientales) in front of 200 people.continues the journalist. “The debates will last until October 7, the bus driver risks up to three years in prison”she concludes.
