    The FDNY says one casino bus, an empty school bus and a tractor-trailer collided. Six people were taken to area hospitals with non-life threatening injuries. The others were treated at the scene.

    The cause of the accident wasn’t clear. The crash occurred in the eastbound lanes and snarled traffic on the B.Q.E. at Bedford Avenue, (as was reported here on VIN News Traffic Alert).

    Two of the victims were taken to Woodhull Hospital in stable condition. Two others went to Wycoff Hospital and two more to Hatzolah, all listed in stable condition.

    Seems that the reporters who obviously don’t follow the ambulances, make there assumptions when reading the wording of the particular vehicle dispatching the patient, in this case they read HATZOLAH, caused there mistake to report it as an hospital, rather than what we know it to be. Interesting!!!
