Missouri School Bus Wreck Injures Six
Every morning kids in Missouri get onto the school bus to go to school. From Saint Louis to Kansas City, loving parents send their children off with a hug and kiss and trust the driver of the school bus to get their little ones to school safely.
On Thursday October 10, 2008, the unthinkable happened in Gray Ridge, Missouri. A school bus loaded with several school children, ages six to thirteen, failed to yield and was hit by an SUV. This Missouri bus accident is every parent’s nightmare. The SUV had 6 passengers that were all wearing seatbelts. They were seriously injured in the bus accident and five were transferred to the hospital by ambulance. The driver of the SUV was airlifted to Cape Girardeau, MO medical facility. The children on the school bus and the 43 year old driver sustained minor injuries. The Missouri school bus driver was treated at a nearby facility. The SUV is reported to be totaled and the bus has extensive damage.
Although the children seemed to be fine, it is important to recognize the fear the parents felt when they received a call informing them their child had been in a bus accident. It serves as a reminder that even big yellow busses are not immune to accidents and can cause a lot of damage.
