The driver of a truck that slammed into a bus carrying farmworkers, killing eight people, was in another crash just three days earlier, a Florida judge said Wednesday. Bryan Maclean Howard, 40, was ordered held without bail a little more than 24 hours after the crash that led to him facing eight counts of driving under the influence-manslaughter.

In an arrest report obtained by NBC News affiliate WESH 2 in Orlando, troopers said Howard told them after Tuesday's crash that he was 'driving very carefully' because he had been in a crash three days earlier. In that crash, troopers say he told them he 'wrapped his mother's car around a tree.' Along with the fatalities on Tuesday, 40 others were hospitalized following the early morning crash in Marion County, about 80 miles north of Orlando.
