Pennsylvania school bus hits black ice and crashes
School bus crashes in Mifflin County
A school bus slid off an icy road and crashed Tuesday morning in Mifflin County. The crash occurred around 7:00 am on Perchwood Drive near Ferguson Valley Road. There were three students on the bus when the accident happened. Mifflin County School District Superintendent Vance Verner said the bus hit black ice as it headed for the gorge, then went down an embankment and landed in a tree, preventing it from capsizing. I couldn’t get out of the bus. So they got out from behind. Several people following the bus, including one of her who happened to be a high school nurse, called 911 for him and helped everyone crawl out of the bus. No one was taken to hospital. All students attend Strodes Mills Elementary School.
