City tour double-decker bus in Dresden is engulfed in flames.
On Wednesday afternoon, a double-decker city tour bus caught fire on the Bautzner Landstraße in Dresden-Buhlau. The incident occurred during a city tour, and the driver of the bus noticed a burning smell, prompting an immediate stop.
Flames quickly spread from the engine to the passenger compartment, but fortunately, all passengers on board were able to disembark safely. The fire department responded with 24 personnel, and the location of the incident was quickly secured.
The exact technical defect that likely caused the fire on the Dresden city bus is not explicitly detailed in the search results. However, similar vehicle fires have been linked to mechanical failures such as engine damage including connecting rod breakage, which leads to oil leakage and fire risk. For the Dresden city bus specifically, the precise technical cause remains unclear according to the police.
