An unlucky/lucky ride

Took the bus home today from Police Academy. Just a couple of minutes after getting on the bus, suddenly everyone experienced a huge jerk, like as if the bus ran over a dog or somethin'. The jerk went on for awhile, and eventually the bus came to a stop by the pavement. Everybody were looking all over, until the doors flung open, and the bus driver beckoned us out. The smell of hot rubber was introduced to us, and everyone knew that it was the tyres. What was shocking was how badly screwed up the tyre was!
It looks completely wrecked. And come to think of it, if the bus was in the middle of the road going at high speeds, or taking a turn when this happened, the results could've been disastrous. Thank God no disaster happened, and we managed to walk away grumbling about the delayed ride.
