The 31-year-old woman, was rushed to a nearby hospital, police Sgt. Mike Allen said, but police did not
release her condition or whether she'd been wearing a helmet. Allen said he believed she was stabilized.

There were no passengers on the bus and the bus driver was not injured, police said. However, the driver
"was pretty distraught" after the collision and another driver was brought in to take the bus back to a nearby
AC Transit yard, Allen said.
