Caught on Video: Train Crashes Into Bus in Argentina, Killing 9

The video below is unbelievable, not just because it shows a train crashing into a bus, but because the bus driver actually tried to swerve around the draw gate meant to stop vehicles from crossing the tracks.

The incident happened recently in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The crash killed nine people and injured 200:

    This is Americas fault… If we hadn‘t taken all of Argentina’s resources they‘d have adaquate transportation infastructure and this wouldn’t of happened. “America should immedidatly move all American bus manufacturing to Argentina…. We gotta get this ‘welf redistributed, it ain’t gonna redistribute it self now, is it?” – B. Huessien Obama.

    If I made it unhurt I would have beat the sh!^ out of the driver, breaking his neck then say it was the accident and I was saving him.

    The bus represents the United States and Obama is the driver.

      … I like to think that the train represents the Constitution of the United States of America, and the bus represents Obama’s FACE!!!

      ah, 2 very interesting takes on this but I think the gate coming down represents the constitution, the bus represents BHO who is running thru the gate and the train represents the Tea Party…

    Looks like a 2 car wide one-way street because no barrier is visible on ther side of track , maybe only 1/2 the barrier partially lowered driver probably thought he had time as barrier clearly not completely down. These things are normally lowered after lights start to flash and long before train gets there.

      Hugo is from Venezuela not Argentina. I bet you’re wishing The Blaze had an “edit” button about now. :-)

      Why would I wish for an edit button?

      Are you saying that because Hugo is from Venezuela, he can’t be on a bus in Argentina?
      I would have said the same thing if it was a bus hit by a train in Cuba.

      Nice try though.

      Randy, if Hugo was in Argentina, he’d better be wearing some serious amount of armor.

    Gate is down but not all the way and the lights are flashing. Wonder what that means. The drive should be held responsible. God be with the dead.

    God above why will people not understand; you cannot stop a train on a dime and between a 10 ton bus and a 20000 ton train, the bus and the passangers on board LOSE THEIR LIVES often enough.
