The incident, caught on cell phone cameras by students scared for their lives, was discovered by school administrators after it was posted on social media, according to ABC News.

The school bus was taking 42 students to Klein Oak High School in Spring, Texas, at the time of the near collision.
The bus driver initially claimed that the students were too loud for the bus to be driven safely, but the Klein Independent School District suspended the driver while it opened an investigation.
