School bus driver gets jail
THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 17, 1993. PAGE 15.
Grey Township Council held its
regular meeting on March 1 and
adopted the 1993 budgets of both
the Brussels, Morris and Grey
Board of Recreation Management
and the Walton Landfill
Committee.
Grey Township's share of the
BMG Recreation Board's deficit is
$15,169.56 compared to $10,385 in
1992 which represents a 46 per cent
increase. The large increase is due
in large part to higher utility costs
and decreased 1992 revenues to the
poor weather.
Grey Township's share of the
deficit of the Walton Landfill site is
projected at $30,131 compared to
$34,191.89 for 1992.
Council authorized an application
to the Ministry of Transportation
for a supplementary allocation
towards the purchase of a new
tandem dump truck. The estimated
cost of the truck is $130,000.
In other business Council
approved the payment for general
accounts totalling $49,269.45 and
road accounts totalling $30,763.10.
A former school bus driver was
sentenced to 30 days in jail after
pleading guilty in Wingham's
provincial court, March 10 to a
charge of over 80.
Crown Attorney Robert Morris
told presiding Judge R.G.E. Hunter
that on Feb. 5 at 3:35 p.m., Wing-
ham police received a call that a
bus driver at the high school was
impaired. When the officers
arrived, the bus was half loaded
with students. When they spoke to
the driver, 58-year-old James Fin-
leon, they detected an odour of
alcohol. The officers asked Mr.
Finleon to perform the roadside
balance tests, which he completed
without too much difficulty, the
court was told.
Mr. Morris added that Mr. Fin-
icon took the demand test, which
he failed. A breathalizer taken later
at the station showed a reading of
110.
Speaking on behalf of the
accused, the defense attorney
asked the court to take into consid-
eration that Mr. Finleon, who
resides at RR2, Lucknow, had lost
his job. Also, he said, Mr. Finleon
had not moved the bus with the stu-
dents in it and had co-operated
fully with the police.
"It was a charge of over 80, not
an impaired driving charge," he
said.
"I understand that but if police
hadn't arrived we could assume he
was going to drive that bus," said
Judge Hunter.
After sentencing Mr. Finleon,
Judge Hunter delivered a stern rep-
rimand. "It boggles the mind that
you would arrive to school with the
intention of driving a bus full of
students home. You have to have
taken leave of your senses. People
trust you. They're placing their
children in your care."
