A two-vehicle accident involving one Bartow County school bus occurred at Red Top Mountain Road at around 4:15 Wednesday afternoon.
A blue Ford Ranger pickup truck was traveling west and negotiating a curve. The truck was traveling too fast for the wet and curved roadway conditions and entered the eastbound lane. The front of the pickup truck struck the front of the school bus in the eastbound lane.
No students or the bus driver were injured in the crash. The driver of the pickup sustained minor injuries.
As a result of the accident, Red Top Mountain Road was closed. Parents of the students still on the bus were alerted that the bus was held there for an investigation. Other buses that were sent to pick up the students were stuck in the congested traffic due to the road closure.
