Glad to be alive and well..

...besides a banged out shoulder. so coming back from tech and going down this street and me and some friends were talking and we see this green S10 swerving in and out of lanes and finally he gets in our lane and hits us head on. what i saw when i looked was a pick up about 20 feet from hitting the bus then with the time i had left i ducked down and felt the bus hit the pick up then feel the front end of the bus fall over in the ditch on the right. everybody on the bus is okay besides some tooth and leg problems. as for the driver of the S10....died on impact...i can tell just by looking at the truck he died on impact.

Wow. Yeah, not much chance of living through that. Any idea what led up to the crash?

Glad your ok. Ive taken extracation classes and I can tell you, a school bus is the most solid thing on the roads today. They are built like tanks. I can totally believe that anyone hitting one head on is pretty much not going to make it through it.
