I saw a video in which there was a passage on a hilly area. That was hardly sufficient for a bus to pass away. The bus driver drove carefully and crossed that tunnel. The vehicle had to be alined (you cannot pass in crooked position) while passing through. If the bus had hit the wall the force would have moved its rear part few inches away from its original position. The vehicled would have stuck there.

Please check.
 
Was it a passage or a tunnel? Are you sure you meant to use the verb "to pass away"? Check the spelling of the word you wrote as "alined".

There are other issues but sort those out first.

Didn't I ask you to look carefully at the word you spelt "alined"? Why does it appear again in the new version? (Please don't write the entire paragraph again yet, just explain why you used the word again and in what dictionary you found it.)

You asked me correct the spelling of "Align" so that's why I corrected it. Did you ask me to use another word there?
 
In post 1, you wrote "alined". In post 3, you wrote "alined". So the spelling was wrong in both posts. What I wanted you to do was change "alined" to "aligned". You did not do that. The first time you used the correct verb, "align", was in post 5.

No I did it in post 3 but I think there is some problem. I immediatly checked the spelling and amended in post 3.
 
Is my passage cotrect now?
 
I wouldn't use the word "aligned". Aligned with what? There has to be a reference line for something to be aligned with.

How about: Due to the narrowness of the tunnel, there is little room for deviation from a vehicle's path.
