Suddenly the busses pulled over to the emergency lane on 95 North just after the Wickham Rd exit as one of the busses began to smoke from the rear.

Traffic can video shows children being rushed out of the bus and according to law enforcement, they all got off safely before the bus was completely engulfed in flames.

It took 3 Fire truck engines to get the fire out. 95 North remained closed for quite some time. Meanwhile, about a mile south of the fire, 3 cars were involved in another accident causing even further delays and use of emergency resources.

Early this morning, 95 north was closed near 192 due to two accidents, one of which included an injured motorcycle rider who was transported to the hospital in critical condition.
