The family of the bus driver killed with nine others in a fiery collision with a FedEx truck in Northern California has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the company.
The lawsuit seeks damages, claiming the FedEx tractor-trailer was operated negligently. The suit was filed by the family of 53-year-old Talalelei Lealao-Taiao, who was driving a Silverado Stages tour coach that was struck head-on by the FedEx truck April 10 near Orland.
The bus was carrying Los Angeles-area high school students on a tour of Humboldt State University. Lealao-Taiao and nine others were killed. FedEx officials said the freight carrier continues to cooperate with the ongoing investigation.
