Around 30 passengers in a commuter bus traveling in Presentacion, Camarines Sur, avoided a possible major accident after their driver decided to crash the vehicle into an electric post when he lost control of the bus as they were traveling downhill.
No one on the bus was hurt.
According to the police, the bus almost plummeted downhill when its brakes failed. The driver then decided to crash the vehicle into a post of CASURECO.
“Base dun sa driver, nagkaroon ng control sa preno — nawalan po ng preno, and then instead na mabulusok pababa [yung bus] mas minabuti niya na [ibangga] sa poste ng CASURECO,” PCPT. Mark España, Acting Chief-of-Police of the Presentacion Municipal Police Station, said.
The bus was headed to the town of Garchitorena from Metro Manila.
Following the incident, all passengers were transferred to another bus.
