This shocking incident occurred last week in Poland, where a semi truck climbed onto the sidewalk and drove right between a bus and a populated bus stop.
A closer look at the bus stop reveals that just seconds before the semi drove by, a women had just walked off, strolling down the sidewalk completely unaware of what was about to happen.
Thankfully for her, as well as the other two pedestrians waiting at the stop, they were spared. In fact, the only casualty, if we can call it that, was the bus itself, after getting sideswiped by the trailer.
According to Fakt24, the driver of the semi was identified by the license plate that fell off during the incident, and taken into custody 19 hours later.
While the description of the video does suggest that a braking malfunction could have been at fault, that still doesn’t explain why the driver didn’t stop as soon as possible, if only to save the authorities the trouble of having to locate him.
