The Florida Highway Patrol has issued a traffic citation for careless driving to Disney World bus driver Jean Valentin. The Florida traffic ticket is the result of a crash that injured eight people when Valentin rear-ended an empty tourist bus that was stopped in the right-hand lane on Epcot Center Drive.
Valentin had to be cut from the wreckage by firefighters. He was taken to an Orlando hospital with serious injuries. Seven tourists were also taken to local Orlando hospitals following the crash. Troopers did not issue a traffic citation to the driver of the parked bus even though they determined it was improperly stopped.
