According to Chinese media, including the Sichuan Daily, Li Lin (39), a bus driver who was running on a national highway in Meishan, Sichuan Province, was suddenly damaged in the front window at around 9:40 a.m. on the 22nd.
Reinforcing bars flying from the road shattered the windshield and fragments of glass poured into his face. This left him injured in both eyes, especially in his right eye and face.
In a moment of crisis with no vision, he calmly turned on the emergency light and sensibly pulled up the bus on the shoulder of the road. At that time, the bus was crossing the bridge, and the river was flowing under the bridge, so a major accident could have occurred. There are reportedly 16 bus passengers.
One passenger said "Suddenly there was a sound of 'Bang' and the driver covered in glass responded calmly even though he was injured, saving the passengers' lives."
The driver who stopped the bus opened the door and asked passengers to get off in an orderly manner and to pay attention to safety.
He also informed the company and the police and asked for help.
A bus company official who arrived at the scene confirmed Li's calm response when he saw the car parked safely on the shoulder of the bridge.
Li, who was rushed to the hospital, was diagnosed with a ruptured right eyeball.
Even in the middle of treatment, he said "Are all the passengers okay?", "Is the car parked properly?"I asked, and I was relieved only when I heard the answer that "everyone is safe"." Meanwhile, police are investigating the whereabouts of the rebar that caused the accident.
