Lefkada: Tourist bus performs dangerous overtake on bridge
A tourist bus driver performed a highly dangerous maneuver on a bridge in Lefkada, Greece, by driving into oncoming traffic to overtake a line of stationary vehicles. The incident occurred in an area marked with double solid lines, which strictly prohibit overtaking.
Video footage captured the large vehicle traveling several meters in the wrong lane. An oncoming car driver, realizing the imminent risk of a collision, was forced to stop abruptly and pull as close to the bridge railing as possible to avoid the bus. It remains unconfirmed whether any passengers were on board the bus at the time of the incident.
