No emergency brake marks at bus death scene, court told

The jury in the trial of a bus driver accused of dangerous driving causing the deaths of five people in Dublin city centre three years ago has heard there were no marks to indicate emergency braking either before or after impact at the scene.

Garda Tony Kelly also said that, given the maximum reaction time to a hazard on the road of 2.2 seconds, there was still time for the driver to make a decision before his bus made its first impact with a lamppost.
