There were some alarming moments when a TransLink bus came barreling into the front yard of a home in Surrey, B.C., early Tuesday morning.

Authorities said the bus driver veered off the road around 5 a.m. to avoid crashing into another vehicle at the intersection of 132 Street and 88 Avenue.

While the incident is still under investigation, Metro Vancouver Transit Police said the bus was entering the intersection from the south as another driver came through from the east.

“The operator attempted to avoid a collision, and in the process made contact with a traffic pole before coming to a stop in a residential yard,” said Const. Amanda Steed, in an email.

No one was injured, authorities said. The bus was not in service at the time, so there were no passengers on board.

The collision did send the traffic pole down onto BC Hydro wires, forcing crews to temporarily close the intersection, but traffic has since resumed.

Police said there was no apparent damage to the home itself.
