On November 26, 1996, a utility truck collided with and fatally injured a 10-year-old student near Cosmopolis, Washington. The child had just existed a transit bus that had transported him from shcoool to his residence. No other injures were involved. The major safety issues discussed in this report are the inequity between the safety of children transported on school buses and the safety of children transported on the transit buses and the lack of a mechanism in place to document and define the safety risk of pupil transportation by transit buses.
