Drunk School Bus Driver Crashes Bus

Every morning you send you kids off to school with a bus driver you're supposed to be able to trust to keep your kids safe. That may not be the case in a South Carolina town. 61-year-old school bus driver Margaret Means was driving drunk with a BAC limit of .17 - just over double the legal limit! 

Means spun the school bus out of control before crashing it in a ditch. Though there were no students on the bus at the time of the crash, she had just dropped off about 100 students less than an hour before the incident.
"When you are transporting other people, that puts a bigger perspective because that puts so many other people's lives at risk when you do that," said Lance Corporal Brent Kelly.

Drinking and driving is never a good decision, but when your job is to safely get people from point A to point B it's completely unacceptable. Even more so when it's children.
