When you rely on public transportation to get you around, you expect that the driver is paying attention.

However, a bus driver in San Antonio, Texas was not fully focused on the road, causing a public bus to drift into the next lane. It struck an SUV in the process, sending it off the roadway and destroying it. Two passengers on the bus suffered injuries serious enough to warrant a trip to the hospital. Luckily for the owner of the SUV, neither she nor her children were inside when it happened. She was, however, just a few feet away and saw the accident when it occurred.

She has since been given $4,000 to pay for the damages to her vehicle. The driver of the bus was cited by police for driver inattention and he lost his job as a result.
