Five people were seriously injured when a Ford Explorer plowed into the crowd that was standing in a shady spot while waiting for a Muni bus in Visitacion Valley on Tuesday.
The crash occurred just after 9:30 a.m. near San Bruno and Arleta Avenues. The 24-year-old female driver said she lost control of the vehicle after the steering and brakes failed, according to police.
The vehicle reportedly ran into a cement wall at the base of an apartment complex, struck the standers-by and then came to rest at a chain-link fence. The distance between the cement wall and the chain-link fence is a distance of about 10 feet.
One man and four women were transported to San Francisco General Hospital. The driver was not injured in the crash.
A preliminary assessment at San Francisco General Hospital revealed that four victims — who are all adults who range in ages between 30 and 70 — are in serious condition and one is in critical, said hospital spokeswoman Rachael Kagan.
The driver was not arrested and was the only person in the vehicle.

No surprise, SF "public servants" are going to mke sure you never can identify the individual or status of someone gets rid of so many taxpayers in one whack.
My conclusion, the evil SUV did it.
Maybe it’s sudden Jihad Syndrome. A Jihad that has learned to be tearful and to blame the brakes.
How many times in the history of automobiles have steering and brakes failed simultaeously without the car having just been in an accident? More likely the steerER and brakER failed to pay attention to what was going on.
Good news is no conservatives were hurt....
A UFO was hovering overhead, causing total vehicle electrical systemic collapse.
24 year old female? Texting.
Maybe the serpentine belt failed.
She was most probably on her cellphone.
Could have lost a belt, or the engine could have died. Don’t know why they don’t teach people how to handle these things in driver’s ed...and people should really consider whether or not they are strong enough to handle a large vehicle (sans power assist) before driving it.
The print version is available as an image file HERE
would be interesting to check the driver’s cell phone records at the time of the accident.
Aztlan Mexican are protected and above the law in SF, and regularly kill and maim the taxpayers while getting housing subsidies and other welfare from SF.
If you are an ordinary citizen, don't fail to sort your trash or be in possession of a plastic bag.
Won’t matter. My guess is she’s given the police a phoney name (easy to do since she didn’t have any ID) and address and they’ll never find her again.
More and more SUVs are converting to Islam and declaring jihad! Must have something to do with the Islamization of Detroit and Dearborn!
This photo was recently taken; it shows newly-converted SUVs facing Mecca:
HOW MANY MORE MISTAH SPEAKAH? HOW MANY MORE ROGUE SUVS WILL WE ALLOW TO RUN AMOK WITHOUT DRIVERS?!!!
The registration of the SUV would be a big clue...
Perhaps the illegal nanny of some local politician?
The other protected class in SF...
Police confirmed the unidentified driver, who does not speak English, has neither a driver’s license nor insurance. The San Francisco Police Department will now inspect the vehicle.
