Another driver gets stuck on the 'road' where Aussie motorists keep getting stranded

Services on Adelaide’s unique O-Bahn busway were temporarily interrupted on December 15 after an elderly motorist drove onto the dedicated bus-only tracks, despite numerous warning signs.

According to South Australia Police, at 7pm on Sunday evening, an elderly Hyundai Getz driver accidentally drove onto the O-Bahn – which consists of dedicated train-like tracks for buses – near the Tea Tree Plaza interchange, approximately 17km from the Adelaide CBD.

The incident resulted in delays for city-bound buses, however services remained running while the Hyundai was craned out of its precarious position.

Its driver was also reportedly uninjured, however they may face fines for driving on the busway where cars are prohibited.

It’s far from the first time a vehicle has driven onto the O-Bahn and become stuck, requiring assistance to be freed.

The satirical website The Adelaide Mall has a running ‘O-Bahn Counter’ which resets every time a vehicle becomes stuck on the busway.

The most recent streak had run for 158 days, while the shortest time between incidents was 28 days.
