WACO (March 12, 2010)—A passenger car rear-ended a Waco Transit System Bus just after 12:30 p.m. Friday, backing up lunch hour traffic.

No one was injured in the accident, which happened at the intersection of Sanger Avenue and Valley Mills Drive.

But northbound traffic on Valley Mills was limited to a single lane because of the accident.

By 1 p.m. northbound traffic on Valley Mills had backed up to Waco Drive.

You should be able to see a 20 ton bus no matter what kind of lights they have. The caddy driver was munching on her sandwich so it was good she hit a bus instead of a smaller vehicle.

FYI The bus driver was stopped at a red light and the lady behind him in the car reached down to get her sandwich and took her eyes off the road and rear ended the bus!!!!! The bus driver was not at fault in any way!!
