The same thing happened in Huntsville, AL 9 years ago. 4 kids died in that crash.

That bus hit the rail at 40-50 mph. It flew! Big distance between the hole in the rail where that bus stopped. Enough power to flip end over end as well.

Only 5 people on bus. 2 dead and rest still in the hospital. One was not even transported from scene. Has to be beyond horrific for an EMS crew to not transport a child.

Hundreds/thousands of kids die in cars every year with seatbelts. Meanwhile, there's only 10 or less on average per year that die in school bus accidents. Yes, I agree that's 10 too many but the seatbelts wouldn't really do that much good. Especially with small chidren getting caught in them etc
