No glad injuries were sustained. Be thankful for that.
My guess is that she was either texting or putting makeup on. How do you not see a bus?

There LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS!!!! If they write u a ticket its cause u broke the law n that’s there job
Put up a redlight there!! LOL
Well they say it goes in 3’s. That should do for a while.
For whitepunknotondope: LEOs don’t get any of your money.
Too many buses are being hit. Whenever I see a bus, I drive very cautiously because I care about the babies getting on and off! Wake up people! I am a Mom and I would not want my baby hurt.It was not as if she could not see it! Wreckless driver! Take her license away!
Chenika needs to get insuranc e and a tag. There are lots of Chenikas on the road.
If only there were something like flashing lights, bright colors, or signs to make those buses more visible–oh wait, there are those things? Why are so many buses being hit these days?
“If she had no insurance, how did she get a car tag?”
If you have insurance, but you don’t have the correct card with you (say you own 2 vehicles and you have the wrong card on you when you’re pulled over) you will be cited for “no proof of insurance”. The year, make and model of the vehicle on the card you are carrying must match the car you are driving.
It’s simply a way for LEO to pile it on and get more of your money.
No PROOF of insurance.
She may be insured, but didn’t have proof in her car.
She may have gotten a tag and then cancelled the policy.
She may have been driving someone else’s car.
She should have been paying more attention while driving.
If she had no insurance, how did she get a car tag?
careless driving and no proof of insurance, Hummm
wonder why she didnt see a school bus? Cell Phone?
Glad no Child was hurt
