Cumming woman killed in crash with school bus

From ajc.com:

A 45-year-old woman was killed Monday afternoon when her car collided with a Forsyth County school bus. Isabel Mora Zavala, of Pilgrim Road in Cumming, died in the 4:40 p.m. crash, which occurred at Spot and Dr. Bramblett roads. The bus driver and lone passenger on the bus were not hurt.

Zavala apparently was using her cell phone at the time of the crash, and her vision may have been affected by the bright sun, said Cpl. David Garrison of the Forsyth County Sheriff's Office. Garrison said Zavala died at the scene.

Zavala was westbound on Spot Road in her 2006 Nissan Sentra. After stopping at a stop sign, she turned left on Dr. Bramblett Road into the path of the school bus, Garrison said. The bus hit the driver's side of Zavala's Nissan.

No charges are expected to be filed.
