Ohio Governor Mike DeWine first announced the Ohio School Bus Safety Working Group just days after the school bus crash in Clark County that killed 11-year-old Aiden Clark and injured over two dozen other Northwestern Schools students in August. The students were on their way to the first day of school.
Now, five months after the crash, the group has released their final report during a news conference in Columbus that News Center 7 was at.
During the six meetings held since its creation in August, the group heard from 30 guest speakers from across the country. After that, they came up with 17 recommendations on how to make school buses in Ohio safer.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX) — A Central Ohio family has filed a lawsuit against a Hilliard funeral home after their mother was accidentally cremated, despite plans for her to be buried.
According to court documents, Tidd Funeral Home cremated Nancy Anders in June of last year against the family’s wishes. The lawsuit states Anders died a week earlier in May.
The family says Anders had planned and prepaid for funeral arrangements two years before her death to be buried with her late husband. The arrangements did not include cremation because, the family says, she did not believe in the concept.
The lawsuit says the family was told a week after her death that she had been accidentally cremated. It also accuses Tidd Funeral Home of cremating her even though the proper authorization form was never signed.
The family says they have suffered physical illness and emotional trauma and are seeking $25,000 in damages. They are also asking for the case to be decided by a jury.
ABC 6 reached out to the funeral home for comment but had not heard back.
