Cancun, Q.R. — Transit officers were on scene in the Cancun Hotel Zone for the second time Thursday to deal with a car-bus accident. While the first rear end entailed only minor fender-bender damage, the second left a taxi destroyed.
The second bus-involved accident of the day happened near kilometer 2 of the Cancun Hotel Zone. Police were summoned to Kukulcán Boulevard after a public transportation bus collided with a taxi. The two vehicles left debris scattered and at least one lane partially blocked.
The accident happened around 3:00 p.m. when the driver of a city bus on Route 2 collided with a taxi. Glass littered the boulevard from busted taxi windows. The bus was left partially blocking a lane when it ended up stopped in the central median.
No injuries were reported. The two vehicle crash caused a significant line of backedup traffic along one of the city’s most already-congested veins while authorities had the damaged vehicles removed.
Cancun Transit did not say who was at fault or speculate on how the bus-taxi accident happened.
