This is why we have unions. At least someone would be held accountable here in the USA.

Did this coach driver do what we all tell people not to do in horror films? Driving through a tunnel, part of it collapses (slight exaggeration for effect, but let it go) smashing his windscreen and he STOPS? Gets out? Put your foot down, get out of the tunnel that is dropping things on your head and then inspect damage.

Stockholm police are treating the incident as a possible criminal offence, a case of negligence or alternatively of endangering the public.
"It's a company carrying out ground work for a potential building project, which drilled in the wrong place. The drill has penetrated a tunnel and a pipe came loose and fell down hitting a vehicle," said Sasse Sahlin at one of the city's traffic management centres to news agency TT.
Criminal offence? If this had happened in the U.S. these valiant Job Creators (TM) would have gotten a fat government contract to repair the damage they caused and then a few breaks and loopholes so they didn't have to pay any of it back in taxes. And when the whole thing collapsed later and killed some people because they used a bottle of Elmer's glue to hold up a couple of six ton stone panels there'd be an investigation that results in everybody getting a medal and some more tax breaks.
Why does Sweden hate Job Creators?
