From Maryland State Police:
Maryland State Police are investigating a school bus crash that occurred Monday morning in Harford County.
Shortly before 8:40 a.m., troopers from the Bel Air Barrack responded to the intersection of Route 136 and Route 22 on a report of a crash involving a school bus and a tractor-trailer. According to a preliminary investigation, troopers determined the bus was traveling north on Route 136, just prior to Route 22, when it rear-ended a tractor-trailer which was stopped on northbound Route 136.
According to a preliminary investigation, the driver told troopers that she was looking in the bus mirror addressing a child on the bus. However, when her attention was brought back to the roadway she saw the tractor-trailer but was unable to stop before crashing into it. The driver of the bus, identified as Courtney Renee Vaughn, 41, of Aberdeen, Md., is charged with failure to control speed to avoid a collision.
Five children, who were from Churchville Elementary School, along with Vaughn, sustained minor injuries as a result of the crash. The bus driver was transported to University of Maryland Harford Memorial Hospital and the children were transported to University of Maryland Upper Chesapeake Hospital for treatment of their injuries.
The investigation continues.
These bus drivers now can’t drive!!!
I imagine its fairly difficult being a bus driver these days.
Students using foul language, causing various disturbances, overall bad behavior and ignoring the bus drivers authority.
Get off my lawn you darn whippersnappers!!!
Another backup on the highways. I missed my dentist appointment thanks to this imbecile.
I agree. I was delayed for an appointment with my hair stylist. I have no sympathy for this witch who caused the back ups.
I was also backed up in the delay…..I was on my way to get a certain part of my body bleached and this bus driver had to pull this crap….
Well this made my pizza delivery late which made me miss the keep things rural meeting. And they wouldn’t give me a discount on the pizza. I would have taken the kids to McDonalds but that was near the accident too. Too many tractor trailers and school buses. Chad save us.
The real annoyance is when evidently students decide not to ride the bus anymore and no communication effort is ever made.
What am I talking about? Depending on my timing, I get behind a cheese wagon that stops everyday, yellow/red blinker lights, stop sign out the side, door opens, and just sits there for approximately 15 seconds, turns the lights off, closes the door and drives off with no student boarding.
Everyday. LOL
Awww poor baby
But seriously, how am I am idiot?
I’m merely pointing out the retardation
