Provincial police say improperly parked vehicles on Susan Street near Huntsville Public School were a factor in the collision as the two vehicles tried to squeeze by one another.
Police say the damage to both vehicles was limited to cracked mirrors.
They say one student was on the bus at the time and sustained a bump on the head from the bus driver hitting the brakes.
No other injuries were reported.
“Being aware of where you park or stop can have an impact on the safety of students and motorists in the area,” the OPP noted.
Neither driver was charged.
