Stagecoach passengers - who were travelling through Bognor Regis on the 700 Chichester bus - were heard gasping in shock after their bus avoided crashing into a small truck.
The incident happened at around 11:30am this morning on a roundabout near Hotham Park in Bognor Regis, West Sussex.
The bus driver failed to give way to a small truck on the roundabout nearest to Butlins, and this almost caused a crash; however, the bus driver and the truck driver managed to slam their brakes in time, avoiding a potentially serious collision.
Passengers were heard gasping and panicking, and the bus driver checked on his passengers to make sure they were not injured or in shock.
The incident appeared to be caused by the bus driver; however, his passengers did not believe he was driving dangerously, adding that the driver made a genuine mistake. In future, the bus driver does, however, need to be more careful and attentive on the roads, especially when he's driving on roundabouts.
Hopefully, incidents like this will not happen again anytime soon.
