People trown from top deck of bus.         


Date: Jul 31, 2008 04:30

Twenty five people were hurt today when a bus overturned outside Poole,
trapping those on the lower deck and flinging those on the upper deck so far
eight people have been airlifted to hospital but there are no reported
fatalities. This accident will fuel the calls for all public transport to be
fitted with three point belts and undergo NCAP testing.

"Depresion" <127.0.0.1> gurgled happily, sounding much like they were
saying:

"Steve Smith, of South Western Ambulance Service, said most casualties
had suffered shoulder and leg injuries and no-one was in a life-
threatening condition."

I suspect the airlifting is as much because it's the "wrong" side of the
Sandbanks chain ferry - which is apparently currently "reserved for
emergency services".

Two cars involved, one - a Porsche - hit the bus, the other hit a hedge.

Anybody else thinking one car (any bets on the Porsche?) was overtaking
the bus without being able to see if it was clear to do so?

Oh, and before Duhg starts - what better definition of "Frivolous
hypermobile polluters" can you get than an open-top tourist bus, almost
certainly long since retired from normal service due to being too long in
the tooth...

Nobody's (yet) cut the top 15%% off him, then piled a bunch of grannies
onto him.

There's probably websites featuring JPGs.

Yes, but they're in a glass on his bedside table. 60p from a charity shop.
