The BBC have just quoted a statement from TfL (Mike Weston) saying the bus swerved to avoid another vehicle and this is why it then collided with the tree.

News reporting 2 trapped and critical
Overhead pictures show tree about 2 feet in as it appears to have rammed the tree very hard Looks a very solid tree which had done a lot of damage, don't want to speculate here but looks like any swerve has resulted in worse outcome than continuing in straight line as it has hit something more solid.
Thoughts with affected passengers.

Ouch.


Does this mean DW84 will get scrapped?

Lets worry about the passengers and those affected first. Thoughts with all of them.

Also the same goes with last night when the Theatre celling collapse. Injuring under hundred people.

More pictures of DW84 on the ITV News website. My thoughts are with the driver and their passengers.
