A big bus is halfway across the sidewalk.

The windshield of the bus was so shattered that it was hard to recognize its shape.

The accident happened at around 6:10 a.m.

A city bus rushed to the sidewalk near a bus stop in Goan-dong, Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi-do.

This is the scene where the bus rushed.

The power supply in the area was cut off for a while as it hit the ground switch.

There were no casualties because there were no people nearby at the time of the accident.

However, residents in the area suffered from power outages.

In particular, the hospital, where about 10 patients were receiving dialysis treatment, had to stop the treatment for a while and start emergency power.

[Hospital General Manager: About 13 dialysis patients started with needles, and self-improvement was achieved with a thud. So I stopped dialysis again and after about an hour I got electricity and did it all over again....]

In the aftermath of the power outage, CCTVs at nearby stores that illuminated the scene at the moment of the accident stopped working for a while.

Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) started emergency restoration work and resumed electricity supply five and a half hours after the accident.

The police randomly accompanied a man in his 30s, a bus driver.

It has been confirmed that A was alone on the bus at the time of the accident, and was not drunk or under the influence of drugs.

It is said that he was trying to stop the bus at the bus stop at the time,

The police are weighing the possibility of an accident due to poor driving.
