Yikes, that incident from Mark could have ended much worse. And all because the one force direction caused a wheel to snip a rock in a different one. Small things, bloody mess.  :-/

The bus driver did what he had to do to save the bus and everyone on it. He's a hero.

The Stuart Highway was wide enough for two cars to remain on the bitumen when passing each other, but when a Road Train came, all other vehicles got off the road as far as possible, to leave it for the Road Train, but the last trailer was swaying left and right and would often go off the bitumen. They were notorious for throw stones and gravel (and the occasional rock) at other vehicles because of that. Imaging them passing each other going in opposite directions? S C A R Y ! :o
