This is why you shohld not ride with babyboomer or decentman4u! One vidoes while driving and the other has used his wrecks as avatar!

Welcome aboard the Parade of Busted Buses, Jens! Your photos are wundervoll!!

Hope you enjoy the ride.

Don't wanna leave out Japan...

Tampa 1980....Ship hits bridge, people drive into Tampa Bay, including bus.

Picture #2 = luckiest guy that day.

Nice ad.

Probably something about the danger of stepping out in front of a bus. Just a wild guess.

there are usually such kind of accidents in hong kong.so bad...

Bump. If RBJ can do it with the stuff he has for sale, I can do it with pictures of broken buses. Today's wreck: especially for James (DM4U), another doozie from Houston.



One way or another, I'm gonna make Jens proud of me by keeping his thread alive! Heh heh heh...

German bus (BUESSING),end 50s




I remember these busses with passenger trailers:










"they" forbid them in the early 60s.

that means about
save nervs /keep cool/

drive the schnellbus/
fast express bus...

greek impression

how did this happen?

I do not have a pic but a small story.

Some weeks ago when i went out to go to work i went to the next bus-stop and waited.
No car passing by..well that was strange as the street normally is full of cars.
So i turned my head to the left and i saw why..

There was one of the buses from my city all over the street..the front was stucked in a small hair-salon.There were damaged cars all around.

In the evening i got told that the driver had a total black-out, crashed into one car and pushed the next 4 cars with it until the bus finally stopped in the big front-window of the salon.

luckily noone was hurt, but it is allways a very horrific thing to see such big and heavy bus moving normal cars like they were small toys.

Like this?

well there is rarely a house made out of wood here..so he just damaged a bit of the fassade and the whole window.
And the road is smaller too..but similar, yes

It was a bus with a link/hinge.

by the way i just found a video which is all about the local trams and buses here in Dresden ( our public transport ) if youre interested how it looks like around here

video
( trams in the first half, buses in the last half )

Very, very cool!

Any idea who does the song "Nightmare" that's on the soundtrack?

that was the 52 route in North houston ,,, the p/u ran a red light and the cab of the p/u ended upside down in a ditch nobody killed although it took a long time to get the driver of the p/u out of there ... its hard to see this in this pic but the cab is in a ditch near the end of the ditch where there is road going over the ditch ...

Wow!! I like all your photos, but I really like the Philips bus (or part of a bus)! It combines two of my favorite things: electronics and buses.

My only Philips bus is a toy.
