Please be careful out there.

22nd traffic slowed after car strikes, kills man boarding bus




A motorist drove between a bus and a bus stop - without hitting either -
but hit and killed a man as he was boarding the Sun Tran bus today at
Country Club Road and 22nd Street.

The westbound car then hit a house on East 22nd Street, said Sgt. Mark Robinson,
a Tucson police spokesman. No one was home and the car did not penetrate
the house's wall, Robinson said.

Detectives are looking at the possibility the driver had a medical condition
that contributed to the crash, Robinson said.

He said the man boarding the bus was pronounced dead on arrival at a hospital.

1. Have seen some bizarre driving in Tucson, but....
What a tragic story!

Is there any more news re: name of the driver?


YOU stay safe out there, Ptah!

5. I had a better day than either of those people


I think the driver had a medical episode of some kind.

No villains in this story.

4. Never assume that any given driver
has their shit together

defensive driving... but you can't take that too far or you'd have HUGH bumpers and a brazillion airbags, I'm series Ptah.

We all have to step out on a wing and a prayer sometimes and you never know what will be your fate any given day.

:hug:
