ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
Lol...drivers make errors in turns all the time.

Given this driver isn't aware of or doesn't care to follow directional restrictions on the road, probably they aren't that reliable a driver in the first place.

I'm curious...are we billing these drivers (or their insurers) for the costs associated with the collisions? I don't mean the vehicular damage, I mean like, replacement buses, staff time, cost to on time performance? I doubt it, but only because I'm deeply cynical. While LRVs aren't cheap, I would wager that these halo costs are an order of magnitude higher, and that's before we start counting the value of the time of the thousands of people that these folks delay.
