Highway Accident Report - Schoolbus-Loss of Control and Collision with Guard Rail and Sign Pillar, U.S. Highway 70 near Lucas and Hunt Road, St. Louis County, Missouri, November 11, 1985
The National Transportation Safety Board determines that the probable cause of the accident was the operation of the schoolbus at an excessive speed and in a reckless manner by a driver under the influence of alcohol. Contributing to the severity of the accident was the use of a guard rail of insufficient height and stiffness to deflect the schoolbus body away from the concrete pedestal and sign support pillar. Two students were killed; the schoolbus driver and one student sustained serious injuries, and the remaining 10 students sustained minor to moderate injuries.
