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

“8X driver parked [the] bus to get coffee from Cafe Honolulu” This is so true. I saw so much of this, and their Bad Behavior & Manner pissed me off Sooo bad.
