TRAFFIC NEWS: 5 STUDENTS IN ALDINE SCHOOL BUS CRASH ON I-45 Nby Bruce Westbrook Five Aldine ISD students were in a school bus crash Monday morning on the North Freeway, and several had what were believed to be minor injuries.
The students’ bus was traveling south on I-45 North when the accident occurred about 9 a.m. The bus and another vehicle collided near the Gulf Bank exit. Among the students was a child who attended Reece Early Childhood Pre-Kindergarten and four children who attended Bethune and Anderson elementary schools. One student was taken to school, but as a precaution, the other four were taken to Texas Children’s Hospital. No other details were immediately available. Statistically, school buses are a relatively safe means of transportation. However, about two dozen students die each year in school bus accidents in the United States, and many more are injured.
