Welcome back 1436.

I hope it is repaired, it's a great bus :(

Glad that you are okay. From the looks of the pic and where the van has hit the bus, it looks as if he has gone for the overtake and either thought better of it but not hit the brakes hard enough or more likely gone for it without looking at what is coming the other way and ensuring the road is wide enough for him + bus + oncoming traffic and had to dive back into lane.
  It is on a daily basis I see oncoming cars having to stop/swerve because some impatient driver can't be bothered to wait for a safe place to overtake.

Hope you are ok Liam :( I have been involved in a bus collision before and i know it can leave you a bit shook up

Welcome to the bus crash club from me also ;)

So it seems we don't have to say goodbye to 1436?

Thanks Nathan. Well, 1474 suffered a crash and she got withdrawn so using that for 1436. :) If 1436 gets repaired, then good!

Personally i would have brought 1419 back to WA if 1436 was withdrawn ;) (Very unlikley though)

It's only rear end damage to 1436 parts could be taken off 1474 or any other
Withdrawn b10L to repair it. Well have to wait and see.

1474 damage was more severe.

Claim for compensation? You'll easily get over £3000 for your troubles.

Michael, it's that kind of response that puts all the rest of our insurances up......  ::)

Where there's blame, there's a claim ;)
