Gov Cuomo says limo failed safety test and was on road
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo stated that the extended limousine involved in Saturday's crash in Schoharie failed a state safety inspection last month and the driver lacked proper licensing. He ordered action against Prestige Limousine as investigators probe the crash that killed 20 people. Officials cited red flags including the driver's license status and the vehicle's lack of federal certification, with autopsy and data recorder analyses planned.
