What a shame. Thankfully the bus was full of other bus drivers, and one took control of the bus and stopped it safely.
Edit. An earlier version of the story added that the bus run was to take other drivers out to pick up their buses for the day.

His wife is also a driver at the Olympics. He successfully brought the coach to a stop at the side of the road before his passing. He was a true professional and probably saves many lives on a busy piece of highway. As part of the Olympic team my condolences go to the family and his extended family of drivers.
