Of course, it wasn’t the real Santa, but a Christmas decoration that happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The crash happened after bus driver started feeling dizzy behind the wheel and rammed the vehicle into a truck that was parked on the side of the road. The truck then hit another car before wreaking havoc in an area with personal items from residents. Fortunately, nobody was seriously injured. A bus rams itself head-on against a truck parked at the side of the road, which is pushed forward to crash against another car before barging towards a residential building. The chaos and destruction even included a Santa decoration that ended up as a casualty of the crash, trapped under the truck. Voice Ms. Tu Witnessed crash Maybe the truck wasn’t parked fully. The driver wasn’t on the truck, he had gone across the street for a delivery. Then the bus came crashing into it. I freaked out when I saw the Santa under the truck, I thought it was a real person. The crash happened on Wednesday afternoon. The driver of the bus was Mr. Wei, in his 60s. He was driving along Yuanlu Road in Puxin when he started feeling dizzy. A miscalculated turn caused him to lose control of the vehicle. Voice of Hsieh Shih-chieh Yuanlin Bus The driver was feeling unwell. So as he drove by, he accidentally crashed into a vehicle parked on the side of the road. Wang Chih-min Police officer The driver of the bus and a passenger sustained scratches. The driver tested negative for alcohol, so we’re ruling out a DUI. The driver banged his head against the windshield of the bus and sustained minor injuries. Fortunately, it was nothing severe. For the passengers, it was also mostly just a scare, though one was sent to hospital for a check-up. Sadly the Santa Claus ornament will not make it to this year’s Christmas.
