Don't you hate that? I hate that.

And so it would be, if viewed from inside the bus!

On a closed course?
Maybe he heard about Ford's "stuck throttle" problem and decided he didn't want to drive a cab anymore...

Not true, the flag is facing the proper direction.
Picture the flag if it were real and on a flag pole while on the bus, that's the direction it would face while the bus was in motion.
If it were facing the other way it would be backwards.
The door of the cab must have been open at the time of impact or the Hulk got mad after the bus hit him and he tore it off to get out...
That's a good one there. The door looks like it got torn off, yet the air bag deployed and the cab doesn't look like it hit the pole/tree.
The Fire Dept cut the door off to remove the driver. From what I have been told the Taxi was going the same direction as the bus, jumped the curb, hit the stone retaining wall and bounced off into the bus. The taxi driver was unconcious and his two passengers were also in serious condition.

That is true, take a look at any pictures of service members, the flag is the same as on the bus.
He was driving along the sidewalk, minding his own business, when the bus pulled right in front of his cab.
See, in cases like this the cab driver should receive an award instead of a citation. I mean that's really got to take some skills to pull off, right?

Actually, no. On vehicles, even when painted on, the flag is displayed as if it were attached normally at the field side, then blown backward by forward motion. So on the left side, the field is to the left (forward) side, but on the right side of the vehicle, the field is still oriented forward, so it is on the right).

Haha these weird rules about flag placement never get old.
