VSP said, as the bus entered a curve a tractor-trailer was on the wrong side of the roadway, the bus driver swerved off the roadway to avoid a head-on collision with the truck.
In the process of avoiding colliding with the tractor-trailer the bus overcorrected and ran off the left side of the roadway.
10 News has learned that there are downed optic and phone lines and VDOT has a detour set up.
The tractor-trailer has fled the scene and has not been located, VSP said.
