    According to the story in the "Sentinel", the accident happened when the SUV, driven by a guest, was going the wrong way on Sherbeth Rd. when it collided with the bus, which was not operated by Disney .. It was operated by "Super Transportation" of Florida. The bus passengers and driver received minor injuries, while the driver and passengers in the SUV are in a more serious condition.

    Also, the people on the bus were the driver and Disney Cast Members. As mentioned above, all the injuries for the bus riders were minor.

    Scary stuff! This ended up on the local new show this morning here in DC, so it must have been pretty bad (though I'm sure if it were anywhere other than WDW it probably wouldn't have made the news). I'm glad to hear that the injuries are relatively minor
