Ontario Provincial Police say a woman was seriously injured after a school bus full of students collided with her broken down car on the Burlington Skyway on Wednesday night.

Sgt. Kerry Schmidt says the woman’s car was blocking a live lane of the Queen Elizabeth Way when the approaching bus carrying 36 students and three teachers struck the vehicle.

The vehicle, in turn, struck the 61-year-old woman who was standing outside the car.
