JAMESTOWN, N.C. (WGHP) — A car crashed into a Guilford County Schools bus with students on it on Monday.
The driver of the car has been charged, and a concerned mother is now speaking out after her doorbell camera captured the car hitting the back of her daughter’s school bus.
The crash happened on Kivett Drive around 3 p.m. A bus was taking Allen Jay Elementary School students home and was hit by a car from behind.
“I heard a loud noise … First thing I thought of was something happened to my daughter getting off the bus,” Benaiah Morgan said.
Morgan said when she went to investigate the loud noise outside her home, she saw a car had crashed into the bus her 9-year-old daughter was riding on.
Her Ring doorbell recorded the crash.
“The bus kind of slid up a little bit and stopped … but the driver looked like … he wasn’t paying attention … Just a crazy situation to deal with for my daughter,” Morgan said.
North Carolina Highway Patrol troopers responded to investigate. Troopers say the driver was cited for failure to reduce speed.
