One of Auckland's modern and thoroughly maintained buses exploded into flames today, complete with fleeing passengers running screaming down the road (fleeing passengers not depicted).

Hurrah for public transport!

I also particularly liked the barely-literate "Steel worker dies after being crushed to death"

He died *after* being crushed to death? Or was he perhaps crushed half to death, and died later from something else?
