Despite claims made in comments on this blog that a bus driver was "breaking the bus", it has been revealed that issues with one of Carenne Support's buses which it used to transport special needs students was caused by a "cheap fix".
It was revealed on Sydney Indymedia that the bus had been put into Clancys Motors in Bathurst after the driver refused to drive it.
Investigations by myself discovered that the vehicle had a lead in a hydraulic line which controls the bus' gearbox and could have caused the vehicle to lose gears and drop out in to neutral when in the middle of an intersection. This is a potentially disabled situation if it happens in the middle of an intersection.
An anonymous source at Clancy Motors said that he believed that the problem was not an issue with the bus itself but came from a "cheap fix" which had been done on the bus at the beginning of 2009. He said that Carenne Support had taken the bus to Sydney as Carenne Support were refusing to pay what Clancy Motors wanted to do the job properly. The source claims that when the work was done the line was incorrectly routed and rubbed wearing a hole in it.
It shows that when a mechanic is significantly cheaper than others that they usually cut corners. Its yet another case of Carenne Support putting profit before safety.

Libertarian, you complained about Simone ringing Thrifty about the Carenne Gate truck but you breached our privacy by calling Clancy Motors.
Isn't it funny how you act when the tables are turned?
How about the wheelchair capable Toyota that is replacing the TRAILS bus... They had to have it refitted over the holidays because it was done on the cheap to begin with and it wasn't done properly.
They don't mind messing with student's safety one bit!
it cant be carenne staff posting they are all at a function you idiots
notice rosenberg must be there
Of course, finding more information out so she can snitch
She must be, she isn't on here mouthing off about parents tonight.
at least hatho has the sense to get people on here to cover for her. thats if there is a function, us parents never get told anything. perhaps they are making sure they get their story right or scared after yesterday.
Getting the bus fixed on the cheap it's a wonder someone wasn't killed.
