Video Appears to Show AC Transit Bus Driving Through Flooded Oakland Road

Alameda-Contra Costra Transit District officials are reviewing a video posted on social media showing what appears to be a bus driving through a flooded roadway.

The video posted Thursday morning on Twitter by Erica Joy Baker shows the inside of a bus with water seeping into it while going through a flooded road. Baker in her Tweets reported it was an AC Transit bus in West Oakland.

"This is absolutely not what our drivers are supposed to do," an AC Transit spokesperson told NBC Bay Area.

It appears the area the bus drove into was the 7th Street onramp to Interstate 880, which remained closed late Thursday due to flooding.

No other information was immediately available.
