Breathtaking footage of a deadly traffic accident in Istanbul has surfaced 10 days after the crash, showing how scores of metrobus passengers narrowly escaped death.

A private minibus carrying a Russian businessman crashed into a metrobus in Istanbul’s Merter neighborhood after the driver lost control of the vehicle early on Nov. 17. The driver of the luxury minibus died, while 12 passengers were injured.

The footage shows that several passengers were standing in the metrobus when it hit the vehicle head-on, shattering window glass and metal fragments inside the bus.
