Two people were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries Friday after two vehicles collided on U.S. 17 North before striking an oncoming Glynn County school bus.

Terri Lancaster, who witnessed the wreck on her way home from work, said she was behind a pickup truck at a stop sign at Peek Road when another truck pulled out into oncoming traffic at about 4 p.m.

An oncoming Buick Custom hit the truck’s left side and caused both to spin in separate directions, she said.

The school bus, from Glynn Middle School, swerved to miss the blue car and stopped in a diagonal position on the right side median.

The female driver and male passenger in the Custom were taken by ambulance to the emergency room of the Southeast Georgia Health System, according to police.

Police did not release the names of the individuals involved.

The bus driver and nine students who were on the bus also were not injured, said Glynn Middle Resource Officer Ricky Hilburn, who was at the scene.
