Not defending her but from the comments I?ve read on Facebook she had just received news her father had a heart attack and she was rushing to get to him along with her sister and two kids (I?ve read conflicting stories that the 2 kids were hers and that they were her sister?s kids idk). It was dark and around a bend and she thought the bus lights were a slow tractor she could pass. Not excusing her behavior just giving some background to why she was speeding. I?ve also read numerous comments saying people have complained about that bus pick up spot being dangerous. I don?t know what?s true this is just what I have read on Facebook and Reddit.

Tragic all around. I cannot imagine the mother?s pain.
