Chinese are hailing a bus driver who maintained control of his vehicle and ensured passengers' safety
despite being struck by a chunk of iron that smashed through his windscreen.
Mr Wu Bin ultimately died of his injuries from last Tuesday's freak accident, but not before braking,
shifting gears and telling passengers not to wander onto the highway.
His hometown of Hangzhou in eastern China has praised him as a hero and a role model.
Dramatic security camera footage broadcast on state television showed the object hitting Mr Wu and
his calm handling of the situation, despite being in obvious pain. Mr Wu died on Friday.
