University City- Two people were critically injured when the vehicle they were in crashed into a bus stopped on the side of the freeway just prior to midnight on New Year's Eve.  According to CHP Sgt Rich Berg a bus slowed down to pickup passengers from a disabled bus alongside I-805 near Governor Drive.  The driver of the bus activated his four-way flashers as he exited the travel lane.  As the bus pulled onto the shoulder, a Toyota Scion that was occupied by two people in their twenties slammed into the rear of the bus.  Both suffered major injuries and were transported to local hospitals. 
 

A third bus arrived to take the passengers onto their destinations.  CHP said it was too early to determine is alcohol was involved in the crash.
