A sombre note on the morning

I happened across this particular scene on the way to the day-job this morning. The bus was routed over the on/off-ramps, effectively taking it around the accident scene. The entire story - at least as much as I know now thanks to CBC Radio One - didn't get told until about halfway into the day.

To say that it was disturbing...well, that's a fair adjective for it. I didn't get close enough for more than that, and I suppose there's cause for gratitude there.

By the time I got back home again, the scene was all cleaned up, save perhaps for some impact and scorch marks on the pillar.

For some reason, I found that more disturbing.
