Aside from the obvious disadvantages that buses have in the confines of a city, such as the fact that they take up a lot of road space, cause congestion where there are no bus lanes, and lastly, but very importantly, they are so big that they can block a driver’s view of an entire street.
This is what happened in this video, where the white bus can be seen making a left, just in front of the car with the dash-mounted camera, which goes around the bus in a rather risky fashion (very close to the back of the bus). However, as the car passes the bus, a Ford Turneo Connect makes an illegal U-turn, straight over a double white line.
The impact is almost inevitable, though if the driver had pulled very hard to the left, instead of braking and panicking, there was a chance, however slim, that it could have been avoided.
