School Bus Driver Endangers Students on Pittsburgh Field Trip - Faces Major Charges including Drug DUI

15 Carrick High School students were recklessly put in harms way as their bus driver ran a red light and almost collided with a light pole on their way to the Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh, PA . Driver Brian Dunlap was charged with driving under the influence of drugs (DUI), 15 counts of endangering the welfare of children and two counts of reckless endangerment. According to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette - The police complaint read that, "his speech was extremely slurred and he was swaying back and forth" when he spoke to officers and had "saliva pouring out of his mouth."

Utah Senator Dennis Stowell had asked that the issue be studied carefully and Rep. Christopher Herrod said "If someone's on drugs, we shouldn't be giving them money," he said. "There's nowhere in the Constitution that says, 'You have a right to get welfare." At the center of the debate is cost and legality.
