Cyclist injured after Hong Kong tour bus loses control, crashes into road dividers

A cyclist has been injured after a tour bus lost control and hit road divider fences in Hong Kong’s Sha Tin.

According to police, the cyclist reported the traffic accident at the junction of Fo Tan Road and Tai Chung Kiu Road at around 6.08am on Monday.

The 48-year-old sustained injuries to his face and hands and was sent to a nearby hospital, while the bus driver, 63, was unharmed.

A dashcam video circulating online showed that the bus was turning right onto Fo Tan Road from Tai Chung Kiu Road. It hit the fences on the left side of Fo Tan Road before veering into those in the middle.

The front part of the blue bus was severely damaged, with its glass scattered around and lights detached, according to another video.

The affected roads were temporarily closed for several hours, leading to traffic congestion. The scene was cleared by around 10am.
