Footage: Driver’s hands off wheel! Bus hits wall of school

Onboard surveillance footage shows the terrifying moment a bus driver in Shanghai lost control of her vehicle in the early morning of October 19. At first, the driver held the steering wheel with her right hand while using her left to try to catch hold of something. But then she picked up a bag with her left and used her right to pick up another – leaving no hands on the wheel. The bus was suddenly out of control, and the driver was thrown from her seat. A number of passengers were propelled forwards, falling on top of the floored driver. Immediately afterwards, the vehicle crashed into the wall of a school. Several passengers suffered minor injuries. Fortunately, due to the late hour, there were few pedestrians on the street and no passersby were hurt.
