Editor’s Note: The school bus was no longer on the scene when we arrived.
Well, my guess is cell phone texting. I sure would like to hear what the official report says. How do you hit a large yellow banana with a large white flashing strobe light in the rear.
How many accidents so far already it only first of October. Probably a teen driver or on the phone .
You are both wrong. The school bus backed into the car and THE BUS DRIVER GOT THE TICKET.
