Fortunately, no students were on the bus.
The accident happened at 3:20 p.m. on Brandywine Drive near the turn for the Mount Nittany Middle School parking lot, according to a news release from the State College Area School District.
The car had reportedly stopped and was rear-ended when the bus driver could not stop in time.

The car’s driver was reportedly treated for minor cuts at Mount Nittany Medical Center. The bus driver was taken to the hospital for observation.
There were no other passengers in either vehicle.
