Now the bus knows what it's like to wait for a lift

The stricken M14A bus that blew out a tire on Avenue A yesterday was still waiting for a tow this morning.

The heavy-duty tow-truck was spotted between 10th Street and 11th Street ... and blocking the bus stop outside Tompkins Square Bagels...
The blowout occurred around 4 p.m. yesterday just south of 13th Street. Witnesses said it was loud as hell. There weren't any reports of injuries. 

And coincidentally, "Blow Out," Brian De Palma's excellent 1981 thriller with John Travolta, Nancy Allen and a menacing John Lithgow, is playing tonight (July 2 as well as July 4 and July 8) at Metrograph on Ludlow Street.
