New video shows tour bus loaded with elementary students flipping onto its side

Posted: Updated:

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- Newly released video shows what happened when a tour bus loaded with elementary students flipped on its side.  You can hear the students and others on board screaming.

It happened in June as the group was headed to Washington D.C., but only got a few miles down the road in Hart County before the crash.

In the bottom left corner of the video you can see the speed the driver was going, which was just over 50 miles an hour on a rural road.

Several of the 55 people on board the bus were hurt in the crash.  The bus driver, company, and tour group have all denied responsibility for the wreck.
