A passenger on a New York-bound bus says the driver reminded her of hero pilot “Sully” Sullenberger after the vehicle took a direct hit from a low-flying goose. Laetitia-Laure Brock said she knew nothing good was going to come from the flock of geese she saw heading toward the windshield of the double-decker bus as it traveled along the New Jersey turnpike Saturday. The windshield was broken by a bird, but driver Andre Sweeney kept his hands on the wheel despite having glass in his eyes and brought the megabus to a safe stop. Brock called it the roadway equivalent of Sullenberger’s dramatic ditching of an airliner in the Hudson River.
