Someone on the Western bus told me about this one (except in his story it was a little boy and he was killed.)

Driver reportedly honked horn but did not slow.

Appears from the details that the kid came out o.k. (?)

I ride Kedzie to work and the bus drivers are fast and furious. All I need is to get hit by a Church bus to complete the ironic hipocrasy in my life.

this was right in fron of our house. Nick saw how badly the bike was damaged and the kid a bit beat up but okay

It was a school bus speeding down a residential street.  I'm surprised there wasn't more media coverage of this.  Here's some photos of the scene and what witnesses said:  http://www.mybikeadvocate.com/2012/05/14-year-old-bicyclist-struck-...

the buses coming out of that elementary school are terrible, I had several close calls when I lived over there.
