That is so sad.... I just cant imagine what the family is going through right now. I also cant imagine where the lady's head and thoughts were when she ran the bus stop sign.. Yes, prayers for peace and comfort for the family and friends... . |

There`s just no sense you can make of this. People are insane. Period. They drive like they`re alone on the road. They blatantly disregard traffic signals, stop signs, lane lines on the road, and even school bus stop arms. Now, three little ones are dead. What a sick, lawless society and culture we`ve become.

Prayers for the children and families. I agree we are becoming more and more evil in the world. Also crazy. Now in Cincinnati if you steal and get tazed you receive 250 thousands. Stealing from the tax payers. So you get rewarded to steal.

Just absolutely senseless. No reason that should ever happen. What a tragedy for that family. I can’t even imagine.

So sad, if there is any fault it might end up being the school system setting up that scenario. We don't know what she saw but her life is over as she knew it no matter what maybe over a stupid mistake. It will be interesting to see if she gets any man-slaughter counts. Gold help them all.

John, Her “work” is at a church that she belongs to. I’ll bet she was doing more praying than working.. Totally preventable accident.. I have never seen a school bus with the lights flashing and the arm extended and not known exactly what it was. Terrible tragedy for the girl who killed these kids, but absolutely horrific for the families impacted. And if there have been threats and personal attacks against the girl who struck the kids, that`s unacceptable too. But please don`t insult anyone`s intelligence with a claim that the driver had no idea this was a school bus. Not plausible, and you`re better off to just admit an error in judgement. |

While it's easy to pass judgement on people in situations like this, I've lived long enough to know that very little in this world is completely black or white.
In this case, it's time for the police to do their work, for the family to grieve and for the young lady who hit and killed these kids to realize that she must accept responsibility for what happened.
What I try to remember to do in situations like this, is to withhold my judgement until the facts are known and try to remember...
There but for the grace of God, go I.

School buses flash yellow before the arm is extended and then flashes red. I could see where the yellow flashing could be mistaken for a tractor, and then become red as she was on top of them in the dark. |

Unfortunately this is not true the state police released a statement this morning she had just dropped her husband off at work. She was returning home she saw the flashing lights but did not realize it was a bus, however the person behind her said You could clearly see it was a bus. |

Did the kids have to cross the road? I know it should not matter but I would like to see the routes set up so all the stops are on the same side of the road as the kids

Where I live, if the road is more than two lanes then the kids are not allowed to cross and the bus must be on their side. We should minimize the times young kids need to cross any road. |

So none of the information or chain of events post by someone that knows this person is False? I call BS! I can't believe someone just made up all the information posted! |
