Bus Overturns In Poole, Dorset.


It is very unusual for a bus to overturn as most of the weight is low down but in Poole which is just up the coast from Torquay and like Torquay is a holiday town an open top bus went of the road following a collision involving two other vehicles. The driver of one of the other vehicles was arrested on suspicion of Dangerous Driving. Thankfully no one was seriously hurt in the incident.

That is quite an achievement for a car to do that to a bus!

I think the bus must have swerved to try and avoid the car and gone off the road.

Down a ditch - it had no chance. I know that road.

It makes me think about going on the "Needles Tour" on the Isle of Wight. It is a bus only road up to the top, but if anything went wrong you would end up being thrown off the edge of a cliff.
