......saw on the news that a "BEE LINE" artic (#350) had a very nasty altercation with a steel IRT el support up in the Bronx*, as a result of a collision with another vehicle, which was, in turn, racing another.

The front end of the bus was sheared to pieces (the driver is lucky to be alive; multiple injuries reported, one, sadly, critical.

People will never learn........ Sad

*I did not catch what line the bus was operating on; I'm guessing the route was a long established one.........

Several news outlets have the same video. Both Bee Line 4 and 20 travel north here on Jerome Avenue, and the route sign is not clear. Another website shows articulated 350 running on #4, but that is no guarantee it was on #4 for this trip.

Joe:

Appreciate your info; when you look at how the front of the artic was so severely damaged, it is a miracle that the driver survived......
