Bus Fire Ties Up Traffic on Thruway
A bus fire backed up traffic on the New York State Thruway south of Rochester Sunday afternoon.
It happened at about 2:00 p.m., west of Scottsville. The tour bus was out of Ohio and headed east to New York City.
Another driver noticed smoke coming from the engine area in the back of the bus, and got the bus driver to pull over.
All 60 people on board got out safely, but their bags and belongings were destroyed.
Holiday weekend travel was slowed for more than two hours.
