A four-door Lexus heading north lost the front driver’s wheel, which bounced over the center divider and into the southbound Pine Hills Trailways bus near Mountainview Avenue in Upper Saddle River, Gurney said.
The bus driver brought the Manhattan-bound bus to a safe stop near the Lake Street exit in Ramsey. The Lexus driver, an Oakland woman, remained with her car. No summonses were issued, Gurney said.
Responding were the Upper Saddle River Police, Ramsey and Allendale ambulance corps, Ramsey Rescue and the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office Fatal Accident Investigation Unit.
Southbound backups extended for miles. Rubbernecking thickened traffic on the northbound side.
