    1. Sarcasm alert .–> Butt butt butt the roads were icy .
      The bad thing here is , even (if) the accident was not the UPS drivers fault it still is noted to his / her employment record .

  2. I guess the strobe light on top of the school bus that are supposed to help “prevent” accidents didn’t prevent anything. Fancy that.
