SEATTLE -- Two passengers on a Metro bus suffered minor injuries when the bus collided with a car near Green Lake Monday afternoon.

Metro transit officials say it was around 4:15 p.m. when a car ran a stop sign at the intersection of Linden Avenue North and North 67th Street. Seconds later the car was T-boned by a Metro bus before veering off and smashing into three other cars.

The bus, meanwhile, continued in the other direction, flipping Michelle Cairns' car up, around and smack into her house.

The crash left crunched metal and broken glass everywhere. A driver and passenger in the truck and three people on the Metro bus were taken to the hospital, but none was seriously hurt.

Police are still investigating the crash but, according to neighbors, the intersection is a notoriously dangerous one, especially during rush hour.

"I've almost been hit at this intersection a number of times. People run that stop sign all the time," Cairns said.

"It was only a matter of time before something like this happens. This was bound to happen," said neighbor Adam Espinoza. "I knew the girl who used to live across the street and her neighbors -- they had accidents just trying to leave their house."

The situation could have been much worse, Cairns said, had a pedestrian been on the sidewalk and in the path of the car.

"I would love to see more patrols, people just driving safer around here. That would be the big thing," she said.

There were several people who were waiting on the sidewalk for the bus that crashed, but they were not hurt.
