What’s up in Chinatown, Muni? (updates)  

Update 11:50 p.m.: KGO/ABC7 has more:

The driver says the problems started when he went to investigate a malfunctioning wheelchair platform. The bus somehow lost control, rolled about 100 feet down a hill and crashed into a second bus.


And then…

The bus rolled into a collection of street-side newspaper racks and a mailbox before it came to a complete stop on a sidewalk.

That was from California Beat, which also reported that several passengers were treated for minor injuries.

Update 3:26 p.m.: @GarySoup tweets to let us know WTF:

Bizarre Muni bus on bus accident snarled service on Stockton St. Began when 8X driver parked [the] bus to get coffee from Cafe Honolulu. 8X bus rolled backward, sideswiped SB 30 bus. Rear end of bus knocked over traffic signal controller and mailboxes. 2 hrs to untangle.

I <3 the internets.

Original post: @disflylatina sent us this photo today. To state the obv, WTF?
