A commercial bus driver, who federal officials say could not speak English, faces two counts of involuntary manslaughter, with additional charges likely, after his charter bus plowed into vehicles on a Virginia highway Friday morning, killing five people, including an entire Greenfield, Massachusetts, family of four.
The New York Post reports that Virginia State Police revealed the 48-year-old bus driver, Jing S. Dong, was charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter and will likely face additional charges after killing five people, including an entire family of four from Massachusetts: Dmitri Doncev, 45; his wife, Ecterina, 44; their 13-year-old daughter, Emily; and their 7-year-old son, Mark.
This is the car of an entire family that was ki11ed after a bus driver drove into the back of a stopped car.

US Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirmed on X that Dong, “a man from China who became a U.S. citizen — doesn’t speak English. He received his commercial driver’s license from New York State in 2024.”
“Unacceptable. This is exactly why we are holding states accountable, enforcing the rules of the road, and cracking down on drivers who can’t speak English,” Duffy said.

X sleuths have begun digging into the bus operator, allegedly E&P Travel Inc., and claim corporate records list the company’s registered address as an apartment unit in Kings Mountain, North Carolina.

There has been a shocking uptick in non-English-speaking migrant truckers involved in horrific highway crashes. Some of these truckers entered the country under the Biden-Harris regime’s nation-killing open border policies.
Duffy and the Trump administration have been cracking down on this through federal and state actions, especially CDL enforcement, English-proficiency rules, and licensing audits.
In recent weeks, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that freight brokers can be sued under state law for negligent hiring when they hire unsafe trucking firms that later cause crashes. This could be an extinction event for non-English-speaking migrant truckers because no freight broker wants to carry that liability.
Back to the bus driver, Dong: How did he receive citizenship without being able to speak English?
