Claeren.
It was travelling S-SW at the time, so I wouldn't think that glare would be a problem. It looked like it was a little more than 3 inches as well...probably impacted by a foot or more given the amount of damage to the vehicle.

I don't know for sure, but I don't think even an inexperienced bus driver could be that far out of her lane without realizing it. I think that there likely was some other factor at work, whether that was inattention, surrounding traffic, distractions from the kids, or a message on the CB radio. As I said, though, I don't think lighting conditions could have been one of those factors.

I'm not arguing with you or anything...just giving some of my impressions.
