So, this is a possibility of how it unfolded.
Bus was heading down the highway. Truck stopped at the stop sign, couldn't see the bus coming due to the sun. Bus caught the back 1/2 of the trailer as it pulled in front. The bus would have had the time to see the whole Truck and trailer. Perhaps a momentary distraction. (I say this as the bus driver did yell out in surprise).
Anyhow, thats my hope. I hope this was just a tragic mistake/accident. Caused by little things that all added up into a horrible tragedy.
End of the day, fault lies with the Truck driver.
