Oh man, that is a bad day and I must say I'm really glad I did not have to witness or experience that ride.  What a bad day for all the parents as well.

Wow, what a terrible tragedy! I'm so glad it wasn't 1 of my buses! But I feel for those involved, from those who've lost their lives, been injured, family, the driver, to the bus company & owners! But worst of all I dread all the bad publicity that this will create for the bus industry, and a guaranteed hike in insurance premiums! And also a backlash of inspections to start on charter buses! Well all that can be done now is to pray for the survivors & their families, and everyone else involved. This really hits close to home for me, as I worry everytime a bus leaves the lot that this maybe the trip I get that dreaded phone call, informing me our bus has been involved in such a tragedy as this!
