A Ventnor driver was cited for careless driving after she allegedly crashed into a car stopped for an Egg Harbor Township school bus Tuesday morning.
The impact caused a chain reaction that resulted in the bus being rear-ended at about 8:45 a.m.
Yamilet Lora-Salazar, 26, was heading west on the Black Horse Pike near Bayport Drive, where three vehicles were stopped behind a Bluebird school bus with its red warning lights flashing and stop sign extended and students boarded, Lt. Brian Keane said.
Lora-Salazar's Honda CRV struck a Chevrolet Impala driven by Sharmaine Scott, 46, of Atlantic City.
The Impala then struck a Chevrolet Camaro driven by Christopher Collins, 33, of Somers Point. His vehicle then struck a Nissan Rogue driven by 24-year-old Timothy Tran, of Atlantic City.
Lora-Salazar then continued on and struck the school bus.
No children were injured.
Scott was taken to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center's City Campus with injuries that were not life-threatening.
Traffic on the Black Horse Pike was detoured for about an hour and a half while the
scene was being investigated.
Lora-Salazar was cited for careless driving.
The crash is being investigated by Officer Nick Poletis. Anyone who may have witnessed the crash or is able to provide any additional information is asked to contact the Egg Harbor Township's Traffic Safety Unit at 609-926-2661 or 609-926-
