    A school bus! Yep probably texting. It’s raining so roads can be slick.. Hope there was a lesson learned & so glad no one was hurt.

    That type of vehicle should have forward radar that automatically puts on the brakes. I know my 19 GMC has it and it will scare ya sometimes how quick it will stop if it thinks a object jumped in front of ya or you rolled up to fast on it. I can disable it BUT why

    You can tell from the damage or lack there of that this car was not going very fast at all. It was raining and the roads were slick it was a accident. Stop assuming you know what was going on in that car. This person probably already feels bad enough about hitting a school bus with children on it in the first place.

    Keep your assumptions to yourself when you have no idea what took place. There was no speeding or texting because as her mother I have aps to watch her speed, breaking, location, and texting while driving. None of these were the case. She breaked but due to inclement weather yesterday the car continued to slide. Witnesses confirmed what took place. I’m sure none of you have never had an “accident” your probably perfect people except for the fact you like to get online and bully children that already feel bad enough about the incident. If you feel the need to bully someone. Come bully me!
