Lorry driver killed in China as a coach driver misses his exit on motorway

"A bus driver in China has survived after being flung out of a window in a horrific crash.

CCTV footage from inside the bus, which was carrying tourists on the Jinhua-Lishui-Wenzhou expressway near Shanghai, shows the driver reversing along the highway after missing his exit.

A truck slammed into the bus, causing it to flip over throwing the driver and several passengers out the window.

According to reports, the driver of the truck was killed instantly and 23 people were injured."


Idiotic move by the coach driver and he survived. The poor lorry driver was killed instantly. :(

Because it's China. No offence meant there, but there laws are probably different/slacker.

A shame as that seatbelt probably could of saved his life and there was one, I seen it!

OH MY BAD HE DIDNT DIE!

The coach driver survived anyway, despite being thrown out of the window! It was the Lorry driver that died!

Who in their right mind would reverse down any road in the opposite direction, let alone a motorway! This guy should be charged with manslaughter as ultimately he's breaking the law and his wrong-doing led to some innocent person losing their life.

Could almost have been manslaughter on countless chargers, if any of the passengers had died!

That's terrifying. I didn't think a crash would be that powerful. I'm so ignorant.

He's an idiot, but we have to remember this is a different culture. The lorry driver in their eyes is just as much to blame, as he should of kept an eye out as in China personal responsibility for your own actions is alive and well, hence why the bus/coach driver was reversing up a road, he was taking that risk because he knows he is responsible for his own actions.

Idiot :/
