NTSB Issues Blame to State DMV, DOT in Fatal Schoharie Limo Crash

State regulators are taking blame for the 2018 stretch limousine crash that killed 20 people.

The National Transportation Safety Board says the State Transportation Department failed at least seven times to keep the company that owned the limo from operating without permission.

The DMV is also under fire for allowing the limo's owner to fail to register the 18-passenger, illegally stretched limo as a bus.

The limo was headed to a birthday party, when it failed to stop at the bottom of a hill in Schoharie.

It was the deadliest transportation accident nationwide in the past 10 years.

The owner of the limo company still faces 20 counts of negligent homicide.
