A man and woman on a bike narrowly escaped coming under a bus in Chennai in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. A frightening video from the Otteri neighbourhood of Chennai shows a man seemingly trying to stop his bike on the side of the road, with a woman riding pillion, when he appears to have stepped into a rainwater-filled pothole. A government city bus passes by on their right just as they lost balance, both of them fell off the bike, hitting the side of the bus. The woman narrowly escaped being run over by the rear wheel of the bus.


The 29C bus, which plies between Perambur and Besant Nagar, came to an immediate halt, but only after the woman grazed the side of the bus and the rear wheel, before falling down on the road. The incident happened on the morning of Tuesday, November 9.
