Authorities say a Brooklyn school bus jumped a curb, causing minor injuries to the children aboard.
The FDNY says it received a call Monday just after 5 p.m. for a bus mounting the sidewalk at 18th Avenue and 60th Street in the Boro Park neighborhood.
The front of the bus then plowed into a wooden fence.
Authorities did not know how many children were being treated for the minor injuries. Hatzolah had numerous units on the scene evaluating and treating the children.
No other details were immediately available.

The way some of the bus drivers drive, the only surprise is that there are not many more accidents.
It makes one wonder how many of them actually have a drivers license.
Sorry but the bus driver did an amazing job this time. His breaks failed him and managed to crash the bus to stop it without harming any of the children on the bus.
Mommy100, you’re right!
I saw him careem up 18th Ave. clearly his brakes had failed. He must have been freaking out with a bus full of children and no brakes. A pure series of miracles.
A) he swerved to avoid the accident on 52-53 st. & 18th ave.
B) No one was crossing especially as he passed the park!! Think about it!!
C) He had the light at 60th st.
D) He was in control the whole time without brakes all the while not knowing where and how he’ll stop.
Nissim Gluyim in OUR faces!!
