Newly-released video shows the harrowing moments after a pickup truck crashed into a bus in New Mexico (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/mexico.htm) – an accident that sent the bus driver hurtling through the windshield.
The accident happened Friday, Jan. 2, in Albuquerque.
ABC affiliate KOAT acquired the video (http://www.koat.com/news/video-truck-slams-albuquerque-bus/30584714), which shows the accident from multiple angles.
The truck driver ran a red light, police told KOAT.
Cameras inside the bus show the driver struggling to steer following the crash, and later flying over the steering wheel after the bus collided with a sign post.
Both drivers reportedly received minor injuries, KOAT reports. [URL]http://abcnews.go.com/US/accident-video-shows-bus-driver-hurtling-windshield/story?id=28079984

Never did like them after that.


I was in one bad accident (40 mph HEAD on) and NOT wearing a seat belt, I walked out with just a cut on my lip, the other guy was convulsing on the ground and WAS wearing his
