    No one on this kid's side of the street ran, just him. I think his peripheral vision was limited by the mask, and he ran because he saw the other side run, not realizing the bust still needed to pass to clear his side of the street.

    It's always a bad idea to assume that as a pedestrian you have the right of away. Guadalupe is one ****ed up street. During my 4.5 years at UT I saw a few accidents and also saw the aftermath of a professor being hit by a car.

    gotta love those dumbass dudebros with their shirts off just laughing at the guy and not even trying to help while he was on the ground.

    Kind of wished it was them getting hit by a bus.

    I never understood why a bus driver would feel the need to run a red light. He isn't going anywhere in a hurry. His job is to go in a circle over and over again all day.

    Reminded me of a hard, blindside QB hit. The guy probably got a concussion.

    Being smart does not always mean you have common sense. It seems this guy just had a duh moment though and was really into the sword fight rather than looking out for his well being.

    The guy should've looked before he ran but the bus driver also should've been driving more carefully if he noticed a bunch of people crowded on the side of the street.
