Ok , I really had a hard time with this one. I am a photographer, desiring to be a photojournalist and when I look for a photo that jumps out at me to make me read the story, well, that was a challenge to me. Maybe I just don't care for the bull crap news, don't really have time for it actually. I want a photo that tells a story, few words are needed and maybe I wasn't looking in the right spot, or maybe the news journals need better photographer...haha..anyway, this photo did get my attention because it relates to numerous bus vs cars accidents. Quite frankly, they have all been serious accidents, come on folks, how do you hit a school bus?? I watched the news last week and there were stories about 2 bus vs car accidents, both with deaths to the car driver and passenger. This image clearly shows the seriousness off the accident...yet, ANOTHER bus vs. car accident. To me, knowing the past history of the bus incidences, raises my thoughts of what is going on with the bus transportation department? New drivers? Not enough drivers? Drivers with poor driving records? What is going on? I have a child in public school and she rides a bus. Do I need to worry about my child's safety?
Good point. It would seem hard to entrust your children with the bus and schools system when you see so many horrible accidents like this. I just hope that we all have good positive vibes and hopefully that will help keep them safe. This also reminds me of the SUV that they put up on the grass lawn in flagstaff during prom so nobody will drink and drive. Its very scary.
ReplyDeleteGreat post, really enjoyed reading it. Its a very serious issue, I personally recall in grade school our bus driver was in his 70's maybe, he crashed into a stop sign twice, same stop sign. I believe some of the drivers are simply, bad drivers. its scary no doubt.
