Dubai, Nov 13: A major accident on Salauddin Street here on Tuesday November 13 morning resulted in confusion and chaos in the early hours. Though no casualties have been reported, eye-witnesses said that it was only a miracle that everyone involved in the accident escaped unhurt.

The accident occurred when a bus plying on Sharjah Road from Muraqqabat rammed into a Pick-up vehicle which was ahead.  As a result, the Pick-up driver lost control over the vehicle and rammed against a stationary bus on the side of the bus.  Meanwhile, the bus which first hit the Pick-up vehicle went and rammed into Pajero car which was slightly ahead before turning turtle in the middle of the road.

The accident resulted in traffic disruption for long since it was the time for people to go for the offices, schools etc.

The accident was such ghastly that Pick-up was badly damaged after being struck in between two buses.  Fire brigade personnel arrived later to remove the driver of the Pick-up from it.  Meanwhile those who were in Pajero miraculously escaped without any injuries though the bus fell on the car.  However, the passengers in the bus came out breaking the window glasses.
