Terminated Driver Still Fighting for Job

Tonia Bendickson, Reporting
“A terminated CATS bus driver tonight still working to get his job back. Jerry Miller was driving October 14 when his bus collided with and killed cyclist Todd Weaver.
“I talked today with Miller's union representative who tells me the driver's case is about two thirds of the way through the grievance process. Miller worked at CATS about five years and was earning top driver pay at $19.34 an hour.
“Cyclists in Charlotte are sending letters like this to the District Attorney, asking him to seek the maximum penalty against Miller to send a message to drivers that cyclists have a right to safe passage on Charlotte roads.”

I witnessed a man whose spirit was full of jokes,
passion, kindness and a willingness to share his
life experience. He always had a way of making
everyone feel like a close friend. It was a
pleasure spending some of my precious moments in
life with Todd Weaver.
