PEARLAND, Texas -- A school bus flipped onto its side after a collision with a vehicle in Pearland on Wednesday morning, KPRC Local 2 reported.

Three Pearland high school special-needs students were on the bus, along with an adult aid and the bus driver, when an oncoming car hit them shortly after 6:30 a.m. on FM 1128 at Fite Road, according to investigators.

"The car in the center lane turned into the bus, hit it on its back wheels -- it just T-boned it onto its back wheels, which locked them in place, sent the bus wobbling and the wheels couldn't touch back down to the ground because they were locked sideways and it flipped over on its side," said Cary Partin with the Pearland Independent School District.

The students and their aid were checked out at a local hospital. No one was seriously injured.

"They were shaken up, a little nervous, a little scared," Partin said. "There's not anything more scary then driving out and seeing a bus on its side."

The driver of the other vehicle was taken to Memorial Hermann Hospital for treatment. The condition was not released.

The crash shut down FM 1128 for about an hour.

The accident is under investigation. No tickets have been issued.

The last time a bus from Pearland ISD was in an accident was in 2001. It was at the same intersection.
