Ridgewood NJ, A NJ Transit bus destined for New York City was rear ended by a Mercedes SUV on East Ridgewood Avenue near South Pleasant Avenue late Saturday evening. The bus driver and his six (6) passengers all escaped injury, as did the Mercedes SUV driver.
Ridgewood Police Department patrol officers directed traffic at the scene while members of the Ridgewood Fire Department attended to a minor fluid spill, and disconnected the SUV’s battery to minimize the risk of fire.
Damage to the bus was limited to the left rear bumper and fender; the Mercedes appeared to have been totaled and was removed by flatbed tow truck.
