Default A Chinese Bus Driver Hero

Dayum

I remember a video of a Chinese toddler being hit by a car and nobody did anything. Quite a contrast this video. What a guy

That's all well and good, but what I want to know is where the hell that chunk came from, why it was flying onto a public highway, and WTF "hero" instead of "Who's responsible?"

To me it's not a report of a hero, it's a report of a man who died because someone else was lazy and irresponsible.

Yeah, I was kinda wondering the same thing.

That was a BIG ass chunk of metal flying into oncoming traffic. How on earth did it end up being propelled with such force like that? I really hope they get to the bottom of this, and am afraid it'll probably result in all signs pointing to someone else's stupidity and/or negligence.

The thing that flew into the windshield came from the brake of a truck that was traveling in the opposite direction on the other side of the highway. Pretty amazing and unfortunate. The event was ruled accident and the truck driver won't be charged. I'm pretty sure if it happened here in the states, lawyers will have a field day over it.
