Lets hope no one was injured (but for the reference it was a 9 branded MMC)

Apparently driver is not in a good state, 6105 is the bus.

Thoughts go to the driver and hoping he makes a full recovery.

According to another reliable source it was involved with a van and had crashed in to a bus stop. The damage doesn't look too serious according to the photo (I may be wrong) but hopefully nobody was severely injured, or injured in any sort.

I only saw a photo of it showing the front right side.

But you said a ''Reliable source'' told you what happened.

Yes but the photo showed that the damage to the bus wasn't much, and I said I may be wrong because there may be damage on the side that wasn't shown in the picture. He also said that it was involved with a van and had crashed in to a bus stop.

@Ronnoc - Do not speculate from a photo when you don't know the full facts. Just because the bus didn't appear that badly damaged, how do you know the driver wasn't badly hurt??? No further comment required, Winston

Just went past there on my way home. The damage to the bus didn't look too bad to be honest, but did you see the state of the black car further up the road? (which presumably was the other vehicle involved)
