How is it “only observation” if a car hit the bus??
So a black car just clipped it? Idk why they can’t say who was at fault. Kids should always be priority. Hopefully they’re fine.
I saw the video and it looked like the bus cut across too fast, like the driver didn’t check. But then they’re blaming “under investigation” so I’m confused. Also if no serious injuries then why nine kids in ambulances? Seems like bigger than they’re saying.
Broadway and Langton is always crazy traffic… I’m not surprised. They towing the bus and sending kids to hospitals for observation sounds normal but like, what if one kid gets worse later? Black car, side of the bus, surveillance… I hate these vague updates. Someone’s gonna claim it was the reporter post next.
