| Mountain Ranch, CA....We have had several inquiries about this bus vs. vehicle collision that occurred yesterday in Mountain Ranch. We did not want to make more of the story than it was due to it being a bus full of kids until we received the official CHP release. We also felt bad for the bus driver who was from out of town and obviously did not know the area. There were no injuries involved as it was a minor bump to the vehicle in back of him. Full CHP enclosed....... |
