the bus I was riding earlier got rear-ended by a fking semi-truck

To my knowledge no one was injured. The semi didn't have a trailer attached so the crash didn't feel too intense, surprisingly. I did have to wait 20 minutes for another bus tho which was mildly infuriating

On the bright side something interesting happened to you today. Pleased to hear there were nil injuries.

I would say that's more than mildly infuriating.

Glad to hear no one was injured, could've been bad!

Now imagine: If a semi-truck can't see a fucking bus, what makes anyone believe they are safe around cyclists and pedestrians?

Trimet? 20 min ain't bad for a rescue bus.

Yikes! I'd absolutely say more than mildly infuriating. I'm at least happy no one got injured

That happened here in Australia a few weeks ago. The bus rolled and one kid lost an arm.

A few weeks later and a wedding bus rolled at a roundabout at the end of an off ramp, and dragged along the rail, killing ten.

Seat belts only required in coaches. I think many buses have them as well, but people don't bother to use them.

It sounds dumb but you should probably sue. The trucker will be at fault and having some idea of how their insurance works not putting your name on it means you will get cut out. And someone is going to sue anyway.

Looks like a MAX bus
