Not sure when this took place but according to the guy in the video, the bus lost control and slammed into a parked red car before coming to a stop just outside the Centro Electronics store in Kuwait City. [YouTube]

What many might not know is that being a bus driver is one of the stressful jobs you can take. A driver losing control like that would first make me worry if something happened to him at that instant.
The guy taking the video shows signs of VVS. Vertical videos looks nice on your smartphone or sharing to other smartphones and tablets but for the sake of not being called stupid don’t post them on the internet.
Privately being stupid is one thing, you may not know you are dumb, which is fine. Just don’t let the whole world know you’re dumb.
Smartphone companies need to make a rotatable camera where all videos come off as horizontal. You can’t expect every mom, dad and old person using smartphones to use it correctly, I think smartphones shouldn’t even take a vertical video in the first place.
The previous generation may not be tech savvy and I don’t expect them to be.
The current generation are tech savvy with smart phones being smarter than the person holding it, especially since they know how to post on the interwatchamacallit thing ..
Thank you for proving what I just said as being correct, yes let smart phones not take vertical videos because if I turn them sideways I get RHPS¹ syndrome with aching fingers and a dumb look on my face ….
¹ RHPS – Repetitive Holding Phone Sideways™
Go and get help man …. You need to see a psychiatrist …
Dumb people shoot vertically and smart people shoot horizontally? You don’t expect the previous generation to be tech savvy and current generation is tech savvy with smartphones being smarter than the person holding it?
Do please oversimplify and don’t forget to patronize.
Who do you think filmed this, Clint bin Eastwood?
there are plenty like u who are unappreciated and ungrateful !
Next time we shall send everyone to have a crash course from u smart a$$ !!
LOL the guy the he is describing it is so fun
” Wo 5az samsung ” LOL XD
I LOLed at that point!
This was in the news yesterday or the day before…
The driver was having an argument with one of the passengers which then developed to a fight.

Bus drivers are reckless in kuwait, IF they find job stressful, they can work as a boy makes tea and coffee
You are forgetting that the bus drivers here double as cashier/ticket sellers as well. Navigating bus stops while counting out the right change to give the passengers? Sounds like not very long till something like this happens. In most EU countries, the bus driver is separated from the passengers and ONLY drives the bus.
he do it in bus stop, beside in their own country they do alot worse condition than that.
I dunno which country u talking about but in UK its only the bus driver who drives,ticket sales,cashier too !
Italy (Rome), Spain, France to name a few from experience.
Heard it was a argument turned out to be a physical fight between the passenger and the KPTC bus driver, things went bad to worse when the passenger tried to grab the steering.
that will be bus driver’s defense.
My Dad works in the building next to centro, the word around is that the driver had an argument with a passenger, so they fought and somehow the driver’s foot got jammed on the accelerator, the bus literally stormed through the municipality’s parking lot from one gate to another, then kept going until he reached centro and crashed into this car on purpose to slow him down (so says the driver) before crashing into the showroom.
There’s nothing strange in the above incident. For that short period of time the ‘accident’ happened, the was a great force of attraction moving the bus and the red car together, and that force grew inversely proportional to the square of the distance. In fact, the car and the bus were infinitely attracted to each other,and The actions of the driver and the passenger, are completely negligible as their actions could not deter the force of gravity between the two objects.
A better explanation of events would be as follows:
The bus driver finds that as he drives close to Centro,he loses his ability to control the bus — at which he starts yelling that he lost control. Then, one of passengers, grabs the steering wheel to aid the driver , only to find that his actions are useless as well. The driver and the passengers are in shock as they see the red car getting closer and closer — then boom.
I think this is a much better explanation
Bus drivers are the most aggressive people out there. They just pull out and expect everyone to clear the path for them or get hit.
To all those who say bus drivers are aggressive ppl then u should once travel in bus and see how other cars treat them and how they dont give them way !
that’s because bus drivers weave in and out of the lanes like they own them!
ever been to city (that horrible place near sheraton) is hell with all the lanes occupied by buses! and they won’t even give an inch to let cars/private vehicle “cross” to the inner lane when in fact, these buses will simply go to a bus stop!
i disagree with that cos always there is a cop at that stop !
