[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are those poor kids waiting for a bus on Georgia Ave??[/quote]

That's what I came here to ask!

I've seen buses pick up.kids on major roads in MoCo and don't understand it. Unless it's a rural road, many other juridictions have the buses pull into the subdivision.

I live off Layhill, and instead of the bus pulling into our subdivision, it stops and lets the kids out while on Layhill road. What the heck!

Those poor kids and their parents, they are in my prayers.[/quote]

The bus stop where the accident took place is a Metrobus stop, not a school bus stop. Lots of kids take Metro or Ride On buses to school instead of walking, ad this bus stop is within walking distance of Kennedy - less than 2 miles. That is a busy intersection where many people drive too fast. Prayers for the kids and their families. They are starting a Vision Zero campaign in Aspen Hill where this happened. I hope something changes and it becomes safer for pedestrians and those riding the bus![/quote]
