Yesterday a car ran a red light, hit and killed a pedestrian, and caused a bus of high school students to overturn.

The kids on the bus suffered minor injuries; nothing life threatening. :thumbsup:

The article does mention that some parents were surprised to learn there were no seatbelts on the bus, but the article also mentions the general relative safety of buses and how seatbelts might do more harm than good on them.

It's reassuring to know just HOW safe buses really are. Still scary as crap to think this could ever happen, tho.
