Fort Worth ISD School Bus Hits Tree

Yesterday, a FWISD school bus veered off of Cooks Lane in east Fort Worth, TX and hit a tree. The cause of the bus accident was not readily apparent and is being investigated by the Fort Worth Police Department. The driver, whose name was not released, was transported from the scene and taken to a local hospital with complaints of back pain. There were nine students aboard who had just been picked up from Lowery Elementary School. Luckily, none had injuries which required medical transport to a hospital.

When you see pictures like this one, the thoughts are that this could have really been a horrible bus wreck. I am sure glad that none of the kiddos appear to be seriously injured. I wonder what could have caused the wreck. It is unusual to just leave the roadway without some reason, like driver distraction or even avoidance of another car or object.
