I went on the Greyhound on two separate occasions in the 80s and 90s before I was 16. There was even in an accident on my 2nd trip. The Greyhound hit a car that was slowing down to make a turn off of the highway. Nobody was hurt and I don't think there was any damage to the bus aside from maybe a couple of cosmetic bumps to the bus. I don't remember if I even saw the car. I don't remember changing buses at all. I believe we waited for RCMP to take statements of anybody who saw what happened which I do remember wasn't very many people and we were on our way. The bus was delayed by a couple of hours, but I don't even remember it feeling that agonizingly long. I think my friend and his parents who were waiting for me at the depot were more worried about the delay than I was. I'm not even sure I told my parents about it. Maybe I did, that was the last time I ever was on a Greyhound.
