Saw this on the 'national' news a bit ago. According to them the tour bus was parked and the Disney bus rear-ended it. :confused:

Man, I clicked on my local news and saw the headline for this accident on the front page and thought... you can't be serious. So happy to hear there are no fatalities but February and I are sending our best to the driver hoping he recovers.

Hopefully Disney or the police get a statement out soon, before the "theorists" in the media go any wilder than they probably already have.

We've been watching the coverage as it unfolds. Many prayers going out to the driver and the other injured people. Also to the Mears driver, as I can imagine she might be feeling upset about parking the bus there...no way she could have know what would happen, but still has to be hard.

Prayers out to the CM bus driver and his family. I hope the other injured passengers are O.K. too.

Not much in the front of a Nova for driver protection.

I agree with the doctor, most of what the news people saw was the remains after the extrication.

Most of the extrication time was patient prep, I'll bet what was left of the front was opened up within minutes. (from my experience as a Volunteer Firefighter)

The Mears bus was on it's side?????? Only if the side was the part with the wheels on it!!!! Dumbass news reporters.

BTW, It wasn't me, but I guess that y'all figured that out by now.
