During Wharton County Day in Austin, a quick-thinking bus driver saved 53 passengers from a near-tragic accident. Departing from El Campo Civic Center, the bus encountered thick fog on Hwy. 71. A gravel truck turned in front of the bus, giving driver Eboni Holmes little time to react. An 18-wheeler was also approaching in the opposite lane. Holmes skillfully swerved, avoiding both vehicles. Passengers, though shaken, were unharmed and continued their journey. Passengers later praised Holmes, calling her a hero for keeping them safe.
