Accidents on the road can happen at any moment, especially when people are unaware of their surroundings. A video recently went viral on social media, showcasing a bus driver’s quick decision that saved a woman from a major accident.

In the video, a woman is seen crossing the road when a bus suddenly approaches at high speed. Unaware of the danger, she continues walking, but the bus driver acts swiftly and applies the brakes just in time, stopping the vehicle just inches away from her. The woman, shocked by the close call, turns around, seemingly upset, and says something to the driver before walking away.
