The driver who blew through a red light at Eglinton Ave E. and Ionview Drive recently nearly hitting a pedestrian is no longer with TTC, according to Brad Ross, the head of communications. Video shot by a motorist using a dash cam shows the alarming sequence as the bus roars up to Ionview, slows slightly and then speeds right through the red light. A woman on the same side as the bus has to quickly retreat after having stepped out to cross Eglinton. Ross said the video was compelling. It may be seen in the previous post here. There is an improper setting on the YouTube video which states the date as being in 2012 but as had been noted there is poster ad on the side of the bus for the film Lucy which is in current release. All other circumstances would clearly confirm the video as current.
