Two similar incidents

Two similar incidents with slightly different results. In both cases a vehicle towing a trailer went past the front of the bus and then the trailer moved in, or the bus moved out, and the front end of the trailer caught the front end of the bus. In the above photo, the bus, which I was driving got away with a few scratches. This was last July and happened where the road norrows down from two lanes to one at Keywest in Paignton. The photo of the bus below, which I wasn't driving, shows what can happen. Either the trailer was going faster or the angle between bus and trailer was greater and it dug deeper into the bus bodywork.
Drive safely.
