In Syracuse, New York, cameras caught the moment a pickup truck swerved and crashed into a bus.
Syracuse police released bus surveillance video that captured the crash of a pickup truck into a bus. The driver of the pickup truck, Neil Brownell, swerved left from an exit ramp on January 19, 2017 about 1:58 p.m. The truck hit a passenger bus that was waiting at a stop light, causing significant intrusion into the right side (passenger side) of the bus. Passengers dove out of the way and some seats were broken from their mountings.

Brownell, the uninjured pickup truck driver, was ticketed for failure to reduce speed on failure to keep right on a highway.
