Private Shuttle Collides With SUV During Morning Commute

A commuter shuttle and SUV collided on San Francisco’s Divisadero Street this morning, blocking traffic on the thoroughfare, police and Municipal Railway officials said.

The Genentech bus, a shuttle for employees at the South San Francisco-based biotech company, collided with the car around 7:25 a.m. at Divisadero and Pine streets, police Officer Gordon Shyy said.

The man driving the SUV was taken to San Francisco General Hospital with minor injuries, Shyy said.

The bus blocked lanes on Divisadero Street, according to Muni spokesman Paul Rose.

Outbound 24-Divisadero bus service had to be diverted until the accident was cleared around 8:30 a.m., Rose said.
