Bantwal, Jan 10: A private bus travelling from Mangaluru to Puttur moved erratically and collided with a two-wheeler near the B C Road bus stand on Friday evening due to a technical failure.
As the bus reached B C Road, the driver reportedly lost control following the malfunction, causing the vehicle to swerve uncontrollably before hitting a two-wheeler and coming to a halt. The incident could have led to a major mishap, but a bigger danger was averted as the bus stopped immediately after the collision.
The two-wheeler rider managed to jump off and escape unhurt at the time of the impact. The incident led to traffic disruption for some time in the area.
