Neil Moon warned of issues with Backtracks: Parent & Staff

This afternoon special needs students and staff from Bathurst High School were injured when a bus used by the Backtracks Outdoor Recreation Program swerved off the road and rolled. Carenne teacher "chello" told Carenne Gate that both her and a parent had complained to Neil Moon about Backtracks in the past.

Chello claims that she told Neil Moon that she was concerned about the state of the bus, which she believed was unroadworthy and that Jim, an employee of Backtracks drove erratically. She said that Neil Moon told her he would look into it.

A parent contacted by Carenne Gate said that her son was often worried about going to Backtracks because of the way Jim drove and that she had raised this with Neil Moon who said he would report it.

Obviously Neil Moon didn't report the issues and did nothing, as we have come to expect from him.
