You see that crumpled mess of gray steel and wheels under that bus and on the back of the big truck? That WAS a pickup truck! The driver of that pickup truck was a 19 year old male, who had received and sent 11 text messages in the 11 minutes prior to this crash. He rearended the big truck tractor at 55 MPH, causing his pickup to go up onto the back of the big truck tractor, the school bus rearended both of them, running up and over the pickup truck, and a second school bus that you can't see in the picture, rearended the school bus you see here. In all, the young man driving the pickup WHILE TEXTING, DIED, and one student on one of the busses died. Is TEXTING WHILE DRIVING REALLY THAT IMPORTANT?
