That's a parent's worst nightmare.
a while ago made them sturdy.
Sad the young lady was too impatient to stop for 2 minutes and instead blew past the bus and into prison for the next 45 years.
And I feel terrible for the family who lost their kids for absolutely no reason at all. [V]
terrible too loose three of your kids in a instant twin boys and a young girl
prayers to the parents and the gal that hit them
There must be a lawyer somewhere that is looking into this.
The law of tonnage seems to win.
Whatever happened to STOP LOOK and LISTEN?
Saw that on the news at noon. Looking at the front of that truck, I can't imagine that 3 children could do that much damage to the front end of that truck. She must have been flying down the road.
That's a parent's worst nightmare.
I can't believe the damage to that Toyota as well.
Sad deal[:(]
Parents, (not that I am placing blame on these parents) Please instruct your children to always look both ways when crossing traffic. We are in a era where everyone feels protected from harm, and the basic survival instinct is being weakened as products and basic interactions between humans and machines are being designed and regulated to the point where injury almost has to be a willful event.
A healthy respect for dangerous situations is necessary and must be encouraged.
All that said, not slowing down when you see flashing lights is stupid. In this case it is criminal.

Don't know that I have ever seen a situation where kids have to cross a 55 MPH traffic lane to board a school bus.

When I was in grade school, my stop was next to a 45mph road. On the return trip, we rode the bus around an extra 30 minutes before we got back to the stop. If the driver was feeling generous, s/he would stop and have us cross the street to our road. I think there were a few times the driver got in trouble for doing that.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

We did from K-12 grade.
Now we have 65 MPH traffic for some kids to cross for the school bus.
