Oops.

This morning a Muni bus, the rare 77x Candlestick Express, "careened out of control" and smacked into a light pole on Van Ness at Geary. The incident, which occurred at around 11:30 a.m., sent six people to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The bus also flattened a tree upon impact. RIP, fallen fella.

Oh dear, must have been some "straight talk" on that Candlestick Express, no?

Was Denise York driving?

The driver clearly has the green. Too bad he was probably high on it at the time.

My friend witnessed this. Apparently it was caused by a group of peds in halloween costumes who were crossing against the light. They ran off when they saw what they'd created.
