Bus driver gives evidence in crash trial

The driver of the bus which crashed three years ago, which caused the deaths of five Meath schoolgirls, has revealed he had never been told the vehicle was supposed to have an anti-lock braking system (ABS).

Mr John Hubble (aged 58) said nobody in Bus Éireann informed him the vehicle was supposed to have ABS so that he never looked out for a warning light indicating if it was functioning properly.
