On Yakutskaya Street, a container fell from a trailer and crashed into a bus. Eyewitnesses filmed the aftermath of the accident—the video is now circulating on social media. The recording shows the bus parked at an angle from the «Yakutskaya Street» stop, with the rammed container lying in front of it. It resembles a small booth typically used by construction workers.

The Ministry of Transport of Perm Krai told 59.RU that bus No. 206 «Krasnokamsk — Perm» was involved in the accident. According to the ministry, a truck carrying a container in its trailer was driving in front of the bus. The bus driver noticed the container starting to fall from the trailer and attempted to pull over to the shoulder and brake. However, the container still hit the bus—shattering the windshield and damaging the right side-view mirror.

The driver and passengers were not injured, the ministry added. Passengers were transferred to another bus, and the drivers are now waiting for the traffic police.

Previously, we reported that in Solikamsk, a scheduled bus without a driver flew into a ditch.
