A van driver runs a stop sign causing the bus to swerve and eventually end up in the dealer's lot. A report from one of the local TV stations stated the damage was "several hundred thousands dollars." Another report stated that most of the cars hit were 3 and 5 series.

Seriously, that sucks. I hope all are well that were involved. What's up with all of these BMW's being banged up before being sold. Remember the ship that darn near capsized in the port? I wonder if this info. ever gets passed on to the future buyers.
