Atlanta passengers escape bus seconds before it gets hit by train
Passengers on a bus in Atlanta made a dramatic escape just seconds before it was hit by a train.
At the beginning of the clip, the bus driver can be heard desperately beeping the ho after getting caught in traffic right in the path of an oncoming freight train.
Realising that the bus will not move in time to avoid the train, he instructs passengers to get off and they quickly make for the exit.
And the last passengers get off just seconds before the Chessie-Seaboard train slams into the side of the bus, sending it flying.
Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority officials said that six people were injured in the collision including the 38-year-old bus operator, who is now on paid administrative leave.
As the video shows, however, the situation could have been much, much worse.
