Four people suffered life-threatening injuries after the sedan they were in collided head-on with a school bus in a New York city on Wednesday, police in New Castle said.
The crash occurred around 2:13 p.m. when a 2016 Honda Accord driven by a 16-year-old without a license drove head-on into the Yorktown Central School District bus, police said in a statement.
The Honda’s four occupants and all passengers on the bus were taken to Westchester Medical Center, police said.
Police say the injuries to those on the bus are not life-threatening.
Aerial video from NBC New York showed what appears to be extensive damage to the front of both vehicles.
Investigators believe the Accord “lost control as it turned a corner, crossed oncoming traffic and hit the bus head-on,” New Castle police said.
The people in the Accord were not identified in the police statement.
New Castle is a town of about 18,000 people in Westchester County, about 25 miles north of Manhattan in New York City.
