Boynton Beach Auto Accident Involves School Bus

A Boynton Beach auto accident involving two vehicles, including a school bus carrying 15 elementary students, leaves both vehicles damaged. The unfortunate incident took place on Wednesday afternoon, April 21, 2010, at the intersection of Southwest 13th Avenue and Southwest Second Street.

According to Boynton Beach Fire Rescue spokesperson Steve Lewis, the driver of a Lincoln Town Car slammed into the front of a Palm Beach County school bus. The bus was transporting 15 students from Forest Park Elementary School in Boynton Beach when the incident occurred.

Fortunately, authorities report that none of the students suffered injuries as a result of the two-vehicle crash. It was unclear as to why the driver of the Lincoln Town Car hit the school bus or who was at fault. Another school bus was quickly dispersed to retrieve the 15 students following the collision.

The accident left the school bus with only minor damage. The front of the Town Car was reported as being badly damaged from the wreck.

The Boynton Beach auto accident is still under investigation by local authorities.

Accidents involving school buses can be serious and possibly leave children with emotional scars. We wish all the victims involved a speedy recovery.
