The crash happened at Parker and Orchard roads in Centennial in August. The Colorado State Patrol said the bus drove through a red light and struck several cars. 

A report from RTD states that the driver worked for Transdev, an RTD contractor. That report shows that the driver was not working overtime or a split shift that day. 

Transdev said the driver no longer works for them.
