No, I am not excusing this woman, no way, no how. Coming into that bend she had plenty of notice to slow down, IF she had been paying attention. Near here, a few years back, a truck hit three or four children as they were waiting at a bus stop. It was early morning, dark and foggy and he just didn't see them.
One of the things in my area that drives me bonkers is the bus literally stops every 25 yards or so in this one area. They stop at nearly every driveway.
Good gosh. Instead of stopping at every person’s driveway, can’t they congregate in every third driveway or something? They don’t do it because there is no sidewalk, which is the usual explanation...there is one.
I know. I sound like a grouchy old man.
