Glass windows on a bus explode upon impact with another bus during morning rush hour

Luckily, no passengers suffered serious injuries during this accident.

Earlier this morning, an GoAhead bus driver and his passengers found themselves in an unfortunate predicament during the morning rush hour.

The video starts with a cam car turning into a junction near Loyang Ave towards Tampines Ave 7.

The driver notices a green GoAhead bus travelling straight through the junction as the car slowly inches forward.

He then stops in the yellow box as he lets the bus pass through the junction.

Out of the blue, another bus appears from the right of the cam car and abruptly turns into the junction.

The sudden movement causes the second bus to hit the back of the first bus, which results in the exploding of the windows on the first bus.

Passengers situated near the windows appear to be in shock as the first bus comes to a complete stop.

Pictures of the damage from the accident are posted online as well.

What exactly happened?

According to an online post, it appears that the driver of the second bus had misjudged the proximity of the other bus in the junction.

This explains why he thought it would be possible for his bus to squeeze into the junction.

I can't imagine what it must have felt like for the window beside you to suddenly shatter into a thousand pieces. It must have been traumatising! 😭

Must be a slow morning for generating content..

It doesn't explode... it's an accident with a collision of large heavy vehicles, stuff happens and glass cracks...

Bus drivers really need to be more careful.

Red don't like green?

:D

That junction is always very busy. Vehicles are always caught in the yellow box.

Here the green bus was moving. So the driver misjudged the clearance, or, he had swerved a little while passing the red bus.

my first thought is can glass window explode ?

then why is the green bus squeezing through lane 1 

recently, actually it's been quite a while, lots of heavy vehicles drivers drive as though they are F1 drivers.

if this situation is not arrested more serious accidents will happen.

  • Japan is weird. I love it (Part 4)

    I recently finished watching Shōgun (yes, I'm a little bit late to the party). Released earlier this year, Shōgun has become an utter revelation - going on to win 18 Emmys at this year's Primetime and Creative Arts Emmys, making it the most awarded single season of television in history. It's also the first non-English-language series to win Outstanding Drama Series.  And it truly is outstanding, fully deserving of all the awards that it has garnered.  As you would expect, the show rev

    Building a racing-themed watch!

    This. This watch dial is the reason I started on this particular watch build... It all began when I came across someone's build that utilised the same dial - prior to this, I did not even know of the existence of a Walter Wolf Racing branded watch or dial. If you don't have any idea who or what Walter Wolf Racing is, here's an excerpt from Wikipedia: "Walter Wolf Racing was a Formula One constructor active from 1977 to 1979, which won the first race the team entered.

    My inexplicable attraction to instant food

    Ready-to-eat microwaveable meals, instant noodles, plane food - these aren't typically the kinds of foods that people will spring for when given a choice. But for some reason, I actually enjoy eating foods like that, and would even find myself craving for them at times. I know, most of you would say it's the salt, seasoning, MSG, sugar and all the unhealthy flavourings that I'm hooked to. And you might be right - but I think it's more than that; there's something about eati
