Bus accidents can be extremely devastating as the sheer weight and size of these vehicles can be a deadly force. These accidents can also impact multiple people as buses often carry many passengers. Bus drivers must drive with extreme caution, and other drivers must remember that buses and other large vehicles have large blind spots and take longer to come to a stop.
On May 23, the Massachusetts Police Department received a report of a two-vehicle crash involving a vehicle and an MBTA bus. This accident occurred on I-93 southbound in the HOV lane on Lower Deck in Boston around 6:50 a.m.
Upon arrival, emergency responders administered care for minor injuries and transported victims to Massachusetts General Hospital. The HOV lane was closed for several hours as Medford Police proceeded to block the access to the lane and direct traffic away from the wreckage.
