Mother Settles in Bus/Trucking Accident

The mother of three children who were injured in a trucking accident last year has settled in a lawsuit in which she sued the corporation that owned the semi truck that hit the back of the school bus her children were riding in. The trucking accident occurred when a semi truck struck the back of a school bus carrying junior high and high school students, killing one of the passengers. The mother of the girl that was killed in the crash was a separate suit that has not yet settled or concluded. According to Star-Banner, the driver of the truck was suffering from a lack of rest and failed to brake in time to avoid the accident. The lawsuit alleged that the children suffered physical personal injuries as well as mental anguish as a result of being involved in the fiery bus accident.

Tractor Trailer and Tour Bus Collide

A tour bus collided with a tractor trailer on March 6 after the tour bus changed lanes and clipped the truck. Fortunately, none of the 48 passengers on board the bus were seriously injured. Authorities credit the cable barriers that divide the east and westbound lanes of the highway with potentially saving lives. The truck accident could have been a lot worse if the vehicles had traveled into oncoming traffic.

As traffic backed up shortly after the accident occurred, another truck accident took place. A pick-up truck slammed into a tractor trailer truck whose driver had stopped to help direct traffic. The driver of the pick-up truck suffered injuries.
