Yeah - I looked at the intersection on Google maps. Cross-road has a stop-sign with blinking light. News reports say the 18-wheeler T-boned the bus, making me think he just blew through the stop sign. From a north-bound bus driver’s perspective, he’d see approaching traffic on the cross-road from west-to-east, but east-to-west traffic wouldn’t be visible until the last moment, due to a wooded area.

Prayers to the families and loved ones.

Exactly... I don’t believe has been reported yet if the truck was driving east or west but if going, west, I suppose sun in the eyes might have played a role in this.

From the picture I saw posted on social media, the tractor-trailer truck must have T-boned the bus at a pretty high velocity. Even if the passengers on the bus were wearing seat belts, the force of the crash wouldn't have saved them.

I see this every day on my route to & from work. 4 way stop & I bet 6 out of 10 either blow through or hug the bumper ahead of them going at the same time. If it were an area with a higher speed limit, there would be death every day. Since it is more of a residential area, people just don't care, don't pay attention or have some entitlement. Sad
Prayers for the families, friends, survivors as well as first responders
