    Coming in to work this morning I passed a Double deck bus parked all
    four wheels in someone's front garden. Nice bit of parallel parking
    though. I doubt you could have got out of the front door. Police in
    attendance large tow truck just hooking up.

    I think I'll stick to two wheels.

    The accident was here

    Opposite and slightly NW of the road junction.
    Because it was night and I was trying to get by without causing an
    incident myself I didn't notice which direction the bus was facing.
    If he was going E. then I'm not sure what could have happened. If he
    was going W then I suppose someone might have pulled out of the side
    turning and he'd taken avoiding action.

  4. According to the passengers he was driving like a bit of a loon and just
    took the corner/junction too fast.

    I checked it on the way home and it certainly looks like it was just
    driven off the road on a corner.
    Did it make the news then or do you have insider information?
