Arlington School Bus Collides With Trash Truck (http://wtop.com/?sid=506758&nid=25)

One child dead, two students in critical condition, two drivers in critical condition, another 12 students have minor injuries.

And I can see it from my window at work.

:no:

That is unfortunate.

Too bad it was not a bus full of prisoners being escorted, or I could had made a joke about "taking out the garbage".

.

I remember once a few years ago when I was driving to work (for a different job) and there were two helicopters circling the block for awhile. I could not figure out what was going on though.

You ever seen two loaded up combat vehicles smash into each other head on going 70 mph each?

Good, it ruins your taste for sphaghetti

30 minutes to extract the driver of the dump truck. Damn.

Yes and yes.

Of course it's not as bad as being on clean up crew for a crashed harrier, nothing like collecting teeth.


Ohh there was a nasty wreck on my way to work this morning too. An SUV flipped over and sitting on it's roof with a semi kissing the driver's side. No idea what happened but when I saw it I was like damn that's gonna mess up someone's morning. Didn't appear to be anyone hurt luckily enough.

Ish, Wezas! That's horrible! It's bad enough that it had to happen, but for you to have to see it is awful! :(
