Adelaide Bus Crashes: CCTV Exposes Dangerous Driving

Adelaide Drivers' Reckless Behavior Around Buses Causes Near Misses and Injuries Adelaide, Australia – May 14, 2025 – Dashcam footage from Adelaide’s public transport buses has revealed a shocking trend of dangerous driving behavior by motorists. The videos show numerous instances of cars cutting off buses, leading to near misses and, in at least one case, a collision resulting in injury. One video shows a car dangerously cutting in front of a bus on Grenfell Street. The sudden braking caused a transport worker to be thrown forward, highlighting the potential for serious injury. "This is happening on a daily basis," stated South Australia’s Police Minister, Stephen Mulligan, in a recent interview. "Motorists need to take more care around public transport vehicles." The footage has sparked public outrage and renewed calls for stricter enforcement of traffic laws. The videos serve as a stark reminder of the importance of safe driving practices and the potential consequences of reckless behavior on the roads. Mr. Mulligan added, "Please, please take care when you're on our roads, particularly around public transport vehicles. You're not only putting yourself at great danger, but also those on the bus." Authorities are urging drivers to be more aware of their surroundings and to allow adequate space for buses and other large vehicles when driving. The release of the CCTV footage is a step towards improving road safety in Adelaide and preventing future incidents.
