A Hong Kong taxi driver has died and two passengers have been injured after a head-on collision with a bus on Hiram’s Highway in Sai Kung.
The crash occurred at about 6.47pm on Saturday near Pak Sha Terrace, when the taxi veered across the centre line and struck the front of a KMB route 92 bus heading in the opposite direction towards Clear Water Bay, police said.
Rescuers freed the driver, 64, who was unconscious and trapped in the taxi. He was taken to Tseung Kwan O Hospital and later pronounced dead.
A male passenger, 50, was taken to the same hospital. A female passenger, 47, who briefly lost consciousness, was taken to Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Yau Ma Tei.
The bus driver was unhurt and remained at the scene to help police.
Online photos show the taxi with its front and side smashed in, and debris scattered across the road.
