Perry Barr's 1869

To me that video just proves that the accident happened, doesn't prove beyond reasonable doubt that the driver didn't stop and exchange details.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Don't shoot the messenger! I'm kidding. :P Having read some of the facebook comments, one of them had stated that the Evening Mail, iirc, had stated that the driver did in fact pull over near the nearby bridge and exchanged details with the owner of the vehicle - and, understandably, the same comment-er had quite bluntly made a point that BirminghamMail should do their research, lol. :D

I wouldn't shoot you @clayderman lol, no whoever wrote the article clearly used that video to create an impression that the driver didn't stop, conveniently the video only shows the bus for a few seconds after it happened. After all, a bus hitting a car and stopping to exchange details isn't front page news, it happens everyday.

Everyone hates buses. They'd do anything to run the industry through mud.

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.

I saw them being towed away. I was in CEX when the First ALX400 was towed past, didn't see the fleetnumber. The Stagecoach bus at the front was 27226. And the X19 branded one in the middle was 27213. I also saw the Twingo but didn't realised it was also involved as it was getting put onto a tow truck on an ajaciant street. Just hope everyone's ok

I've just seen a clip on the local Scottish news and the First ALX400 involved was 'LK53 EXV'
