https://wach.com/news/local/5-students-recovering-after-tree-falls-on-greenville-co-school-bus

Reports are that there were only minor injuries. What I want to know is, are these buses performing the way they should? I mean, look at that thing. Should it cave in that far with a tree falling on it?

That's what I was thinking when I first saw that video. I just don't believe those model buses are built as tough.

Is that the same incident? They are playing it on the news. Huh, well, I guess I'm going nuts.
