Exactly how does a child fall from a bus? Did he fall from a window? The emergency back door?
I have the same question ;|

They need to start manufacturing “leaning” school buses similar to what exists in NYC local mass transit buses, where the driver pushes a buttom and the front of the bus where the entry/exit steps are go lower to the ground to where there’s only about 3-4 inches separating between the ground and the lowest step. There’s no details in this story about why the yingle fell, but it might have been because the first step is too high off the ground.
I think we fell out from the emergency exit door from the back of the bus
I heard that he fell out the emergency door.
Monsey has an inordinate amount of child injuries. Hashem is definitely trying to tell us something. Where in Tanach do we read of children dying? What comes to mind is when Chiel rebuilt Yericho. Perhaps Hashem is trying to tell the community that the way Monsey has been rebuilt against the wishes of existing residents is as bad as rebuilding Yericho.
