Scenes that do not fit the human mind unfolded on the old Poseidonos Avenue, when, due to bad weather , a bus on the Piraeus-Voula route was trapped under a bridge, with passengers forming a human “chain” in order to safely leave the spot. .
The water covered almost the entire bus, leaving only its roof visible, as the water level rose.

At this point there were many problems due to bad weather, with the water reaching a fairly high altitude, while the traffic was closed for some hours.
The water that was collected was enough, “sinking” the bus to the middle, however the passengers managed to leave it.
