The bus carrying the students ended up in a ditch. Fortunately, no children were injured in the accident. Parents were called to come pick them up while another bus was quickly chartered to pick up the high school students.

While the bus was traveling on the D26 towards Ginestas, a car, traveling at high speed in the opposite direction, would have forced the driver to make a maneuver to avoid it by biting onto the shoulder. It was then that the shoulder collapsed and the bus found itself overturned in the ditch.
