How very sad. That poor family.

ETA: There were two threads on this topic so I merged them.

It's just horrible. I feel so bad for the bus driver as well - I can't imagine being in the shoes of the family or him.:(

I agree Kristi....so far it appears that the little boy sort of ran into the side of the bus...I don't see how the driver could have avoided that, but I'm sure it will be with him for the rest of his life.

And the family of the little boy...Oh my heart just grieves for them.

That's too bad. It sounds like it wasn't the driver's fault, but it still must be rough for everyone...

the boy must have lost his balance or something to veer off the sidewalk and into the bus. It's been years since I rode a bike, and I don't know if the sidewalk over there at Ft Wilderness is raised, but ..... the end result is still very sad.

hugs and pixie dust to the Brubaker family.
pixie dust also goes out to the bus driver, a 30yr CM.

I am glad it wasn't the bus driver's fault - for his sake. Poor guy - but it would still be a bit easier to live with.
Does anyone know if there is a lot of bike traffic on that road? I have a feeling Disney will be cracking down very soon on where people can ride bikes....

What a terrible thing for a family to go through. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

My happy place has a dark cloud over it today.

This is awful all around. I can't imagine what all parties involved must be feeling.

Agree with everyone here, very sad for the Bus Driver too. :( My thoughts are with the CM and his family also.
