What is the name of your state?Tx
I have been forced to leave my job driving for a company called
Casino Express. The company I was driving for is based in Houston, Tx.
They have regular line runs in Dallas, Texas. The runs are from
Dallas, Tx to Bossier City La. The buses run seven days per week two
runs per day. I was working five days per week. On May 30, 2005 The
home company in Houston, Tx recalled all the Dallas buses and leased
older buses form Prevost Bus Co. These buses had bad brakes, air leaks,
Bad tires, loose steering and other problems. I told the operations
manager to no avail. I then reported the situation to the Casino I was
carrying passengers to. I also reported the situation to the Tx.
Department of transportation. The operations manager found out about
these reports and told me my new schedule as I was returning from the
Casino on 06/04/05. My new schedule was Tue and Wed and then be on call.
These buses were in my opinion not safe to transport passengers or be on
the highway. I have a signed letter stating that if I lost my job it
would be due to reporting unsafe buses. The letter was signed by the
head of the Group Sales Department at the Casino I was carrying
passengers to. Any similar situations or comments would be greatly
appreciated.
