It’s not stuck on the railroad tracks people that do construction rear ended the school bus so it’s on the railroad tracks, but it’s because the truck smashed into it and the kids are fine

Saved my fellow curious readers a Google search ‘Buses get stuck on railroad tracks primarily due to high-centering (bottoming out), where the long wheelbase causes the underside to catch on raised tracks, or by stalling/stopping on the tracks due to traffic congestion. Because they are low-clearance vehicles with slow acceleration, they are highly susceptible to getting trapped when crossing, particularly at uneven crossings. ‘
