A bus struck vehicles waiting at a traffic signal during the morning commute in Bundang, triggering a chain collision involving 17 vehicles, according to South Korea's Korean Broadcasting System (KBS) News.
The crash happened around 7:30 a.m. on November 11 in Yatap-dong, a neighborhood in Seongnam, south of Seoul. The broadcaster reports that the bus collided with several vehicles before hitting the central divider.
Citizen-submitted footage shows wreckage scattered across the road and sidewalk, broken safety fencing and a fallen street pole beside a bus stop. Farther along, smoke rises near a stopped bus. Severely crushed cars and damaged minibuses surround the intersection as police and firefighters work nearby.

An on-screen update says the extent of casualties was still being checked at 9 a.m.; the report gives no confirmed injury total.
