Freezing Fog Blamed Partly in Multi Car Crash on I-5

If this was the same multi-vehicle accident... I have some words to say regarding the heroic effort and excellent driving skills of one particular bus driver. I beleive, even as time has passed, that this bus driver deserves some sort of official recognition. We were on his bus that picked us up from the train station in Eugene. Nov, 24, at 5:30 am, to Portland to meet our train that was delayed the night before for mechanical reasons. I have contacted am trak and cannot get any information except that amtrak has their own buses, but occasionally will charter with a local business. No one from their customer service will find who the driver was... there were actually 2 buses, the bus I was on was in the lead. This accident was horrible, crashing all around us, for at least a quarter mile or better... our bus driver, I swear drove us through avoiding wrecking and brought us to a halt in the midst of MAYHEM. Not even a bit of debris hit our bus as far as I could tell. Many of our passengers were sleeping and didn't even know we were in the middle of a CRASH. I counted 13 tow trucks that hauled off cars smashed like pop cans. We saw at least 3 semi trucks off the freeway. I am just saying ... if not for the skill of our driver, this could have been a WHOLE LOT WORSE THAN IT WAS. I dream of it almost every night, and every night I include this angel of a busdriver in my prayers, for my neice and her 2 young and precious babes were also on that bus. I was so shell shocked, that it did not even occur to me to get his name or anything like that... but we sure did shake his hands, bless and thank him as we off boarded in Portland, at the train station. I wish someone could find out who he was and give him credit where credit is due, I weep in gratitude yet as I type this note. remembering the episode is very emotionally moving... so many people were involved. I was so sorry to hear some one passed waway as a result of the collisions. Please help me find peace of mind in locating this driver.
