That guy in Australia must be a complete tool to crash into a bridge that low in a coach that big!
a 4x4 probably couldn't clear that bridge

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

4567 had a minor collusion with a vehicle. The bus has scrapes at the back right side.

Driver assaulted on a 997.

I think I know the driver who got assaulted. He didn't realise the injury to his hand until later on in the journey.

You don't know, sometimes in incidents like that, the adrenaline kicks in and you may be injured yet not realise it!
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

And this is the problem with a lot of people today - the guy is clearly in the wrong for having an out-of-date ticket, yet when caught out, instead of admitting their responsibility, just lash out instead.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath
