The driver of that black van was definitely distracted or maybe he had a medical episode like a seizure or something else. He didn’t even slow down. The medical emergency must have happened much earlier.
Just another typical day in Lakewood. The Black truck didn’t even slow down!!
The bus had a stop sign.
Maybe he stopped at the stop sign.
Even if he stopped you have to look for oncoming traffic, basic rules of driving
To a % of driver’s, a stop sign is merely a suggestion.
