I was on this bus!

Six bus passengers were taken to hospitals this morning with neck and back injuries after an MBTA bus driver stopped suddenly to avoid hitting another vehicle near the Forest Hills T Station, according to a transit spokesman.

The Route 32 bus hit the brakes at 8:30 a.m. to avoid hitting a van that pulled out in front of it, said Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority spokesman Joe Pesaturo in an e-mail.

I was the last one to get on and was standing up near the driver. I held on as people dominoed into me. Lucky that I had a good grip on the handle and didn't go through the windshield! But surviving unscathed made me feel big & strong.
