Yeah, you can see how she steps down a bit and then she falls on the floor. As you say, she didn't bother looking before doing that and it's not the driver's job to look out for irresponsible people that dont understand that BUS LANES ARE FOR BUSES, AND PAVEMENTS FOR PEOPLE.
Peter2571 that was not the Bus company controller; this was a TFL’s controller also known as centerCom...who deal with emergency...no very well from this video
Glad she wasn't seriously hurt, ambulance response time 8 mins, dickhead in control response time 3 days 13 hours and 48 minutes. She would be dead if it was an urgent issue.
could happen to anyone she was to blame but maybe she was zoned out and didnt think the bus was so close ive done it sometimes where ive been walking down the street in my own little world and snap out of it half way down the street and shocked how far ive walked whiles i was trapped in my own thoughts if that makes sense.
use those bus stops at Brixton station, daily. It's mayhem on the payments. On the whole the bus drivers do an amazing job and you, sir, are a credit to your profession.
New word for this kind of incident 'pedeathtrian'= someone who is a fucking jaywalking dumbass. I see this happen on a regular basis. Hope she is ok, but totally her fault
On a serious note: you'd be surprised how true that is. Studies have show that red fire trucks in the US are twice as likely to be in a traffic accident than the yellow-green fire trucks. It turns out red vehicles do not register as danger in the human brain for some unknown reason.
@@RebeccaFarquharson We're not fitted with eyes in the back of our heads, electric buses are quiet in noisy neighbourhoods like that, and Tinkerbell sidestepped to avoid other pedestrians. As a result, her flying lessons were accelerated.
the lady on radio clearly wasn't listening the poor bus driver. To the lady on the CentreCom get your didlo out of you and start listening to people...
Not your fault mate, good one having your own camera. I drive a coach and my own dashboard camera because i had non fault accident and luckily had my own camera, my manager tried to say it was my fault and threatened to sack me so i threatened him with legal action and said i had my own footage and immediately my manager and his cronies had to back track and leave me in peace. They still don't like the fact that i have a camera on board but guess what it films my driving and i can download the footage a lot quicker than what the coach company can
"Hello yes I've hit a woman with the bus and she is asking for an ambulance, over" "OK what's actually wrong with her then?" "I've hit her with the bus, over" "Well that's an accident, you should have said that in the first place" ....... "Yeah I told you twice already, you wasn't paying attention, was you painting your nails, over?"
Driver tells radio woman, early on, that he hit a woman with his bus. Then, later, the woman says..."oh you hit her, it's an accident - you should've said this in the first place". HE DID! You weren't listining
There's a logic to it. She should be checked over for hidden injuries (whiplash, concussion) but presenting at the local NHS Urgent Care is a guaranteed to be an hour's wait for triage, and six hours after that for care. Ambulance patients get treated faster, to free the vehicle, and waits on a stretcher can be extended pending bed availability. The one time I went that route (they didn't think I'd make it, MPE causing a heart attack), my determined fight-back was much appreciated as many of my fellow patients weren't fighters.
Yeah you guys are right - what an idiot radio controller. I drove a bus for 30 years - and all the office staff and bosses thought we drivers were stupid. And we were ! For putting up with the crap we got from the so called experts !
That women on centre-comm really pissed me off used to be a driver and know just how difficult and rude centre-comm and controllers can be to drivers btw u handled that incident well.
Having been in this situation when a tourist stepped out in front of my bus I certainly didn't get all these questions of off centrecom. I just told them my location and requested emergency services immediately. Unfortunately the gentleman later died from his injuries
I’ve just joined Arriva. Should be in service in a couple weeks. This looks like a very stressful day, you handled it tremendously! Well done to you.....clearly was not your fault. I think I will get a GoPro lol
Driver, you done a bloody amazing job there, you stopped immediately and got out to check if she was alright, and you also kept ur temper with CentreCom. I've always wanted to be a bus driver down here in Australia, and i doubt it'll be that hectic down here than up there in the UK. Just wondering what are your top tips for being a bus driver?
I have been on a bus during an accident once before. I could hear CentreCom as I was near the front of the bus. They're cocky as they want to have the final word, and think they are higher than anyone else. - In this video, the woman over CentreCom kept speaking so vaguely, that I'm not surprised you kept asking for a repeat of her message. I personally do believe that the woman who waked into the road should be given full blame, as it's her responsibility to care for herself and her safety. I read through a few of the comments already posted on this video, and I have the following to say about Jaywalking: Jay-walking should be a fine-able crime in the UK. All accident blames should be on the pedestrian.
Bravo driver! Even tho it's not your fault, you saw her, turned right but still hit her. You were the first one to help her! And that bitch on CentreCom! Probably doing her nails and texting to her "BFF", and not listening.
Why does their radio not have an actual attachment so he can push to talk? That would be so much easier. I think he was very friendly. It was an accident. She stepped on the curb and the mirrors hit her.
I'm glad that everything worked out for you, and especially that your camera was on. It's the nightmare of every driver, and especially professional bus drivers, who have to keep in check careless pedestrians, bikers, and other drivers. But really how stupid do you need to be to step on the road, with you back to the traffic?
I had the same problem on the route 3 in regents street someone walked off the pavement and hit him the company sacked me over it even knowing I had over 20 wittiness
if the police took jay walking as seriously as they do in other countries this would not happen and the pedestrian would be getting a ticket. as for the idiot on the radio if anyone should be sacked it should be her if it was a more serious accident with her wasting time. i mean just get the ambulance and worry about the paperwork later.
Why does it always have to be the worst controler at Centre com taking the emergency calls... If i that was me, i would ask to speak to someone that has sense
The sad thing is they will say the driver should have anticipated her going on the road as she was very close. Personally as a bus driver I would have covered the break or even pressed my horn at this moment but shit happens I guess.
By the time I saw her, I could barely turn the steering wheel slightly towards the right. There was nothing else I could safely do. The police agreed. That place is extremely crowded and there is only so much that a pair of human eyes can see.
@@Lifereportage I’m on ur side 100% but as a fellow bus driver we both know how those operations managers will throw u under the bus.. (no pun intended) 😅
All pedestrians, and cyclists too, ought to have some sort of insurance for road use, perhaps as some kind of tax. And in instances like this, when they act without due care and attention, or when they are reckless with their own health and safety as well as that of others, their insurance/tax should come into play and increase. This little action on the lady's part no doubt caused stress to the driver, disrupted the journey of the current and future intending passengers and other road users behind, and is, at her request, taking up emergency resources in order to potentially follow through with a claim, which is clearly her fault.
I also stepped on the edge of the curb when the when the bus was approaching, but In a split second I managed to look behind and dodge the mirror. If I didn't it would have been bad.
Seems to me that the CentreComm controller did not listen properly to the driver who'd told her exactly why he was making the Code Red call. The woman stepped off the kerb into the side of the bus as it was passing her. The driver did everything correctly.
Unfortently in the UK drivers are not protected by Jay walking laws in cities in most cases unless the pedestrian throws themself into a moving vehicle the driver will be blamed for it.
No blame on the bus driver whatsoever. The woman collided with the bus. I'd have told that woman on the intercom "you should have said that in the first place" to F off. The poor driver is shaken up.
I'm not a bus driver but I also drove small vans & light trucks in a trafficked and crowded town. The problem with pedestrians is their "vulnerability and unpredictability" by default in any accident, so a driver must to be careful twice. Good for you if you get the gopro video evidence that shows the careless walking and intrusion into the road of the woman.
Im not from London or where ever that is, but that control lady is a dog, normally if your head hurts after an accident, it can and will cause major problems as of internal bleeding which causes death
Yes, but not advised. Centrecom responds a lot quicker, as they already know who you are and where you are even before you start talking. They also have a fast connection with the emergency services, they are literary next door. If you call 999 they ask you all sort of questions, including your home address and it takes a lot longer to get help. Furthermore, when you call Centrecom, you automatically let you garage know that you made an emergency call and they send the nearest controller to take charge of the situation. The controller often gets there even before the police, to sort out the passengers and the bus. A hidden world.
omg that operater Asking why she wants an ambulance... flippin hell man...let's hope she does not get a job working for emergency services... gawd help us all if she does!!
+RWL2012 Because there is no point arguing with Centrecom, they always want to have the last word. Also that woman needed help and all I was aiming to was to get the situation dealt with quickly. Furthermore, that is a very busy road and a bus stuck in the middle like that causes quite some inconvenience, so it was in the interest of everyone to get done with it asap.
Life Reportage Good point. No point having an ego battle when someone is injured like this. He dealt with it calmly and professionally. The 'I said, you said' debate can be had later.
Well done to the bus driver for taking the right steps. Bus driver didn't do anything wrong cos I could see woman walking on the road as bus was approaching the bus stop
Jesus Christ that traffic office wench needs to stick clear of the role she's attempted to take on. He did say that it was an accident and that he'd hit her with his bus, however she's clearly more concerned on the reasons as to why the injured requested an ambulance (which isn't her business) The driver was excellent keeping his cool with such a Pratt!
By saying the bus hit a woman, thats implying it's the bus drivers fault. From what I saw the woman stepped off the curb and hit the bus with her body.
Life Reportage I know what it's like . I'm a Sydney bus driver . I've knudged a couple of people with the bus before . 2 days ago , I nearly killed someone that backed out in front of me. I swerved onto the wrong side of the road luckily without crashing into anyone . When they drove last me , I sounded the horn for about 10 secs to let them know.
The driver was not doing any speed at all, the pedestrian was walking along the kerb, lost her footing and fell toward the bus, the driver stopped immediately. He was aware of her fully as well as the shed load of hazards inches from his bus in all directions he stopped as soon as she became a danger he stopped. Driver did everything right.
Clearly it was the woman's fault! as she didn't look!!! That's why the bus clipped her. Certainly NOT the bus drivers fault. He stopped the bus immediately & got out to check on her. ( Showing deep concern 😱).Some people are really STUPID when walking near the kerb ( of which is STUPID anyway!) This is what can happen if you lose your balance for a second. & fall shit towards the traffic. But, I think she step out into the busy road knowing dam well traffic was heavy. But, still was more interested in getting along ( maybe in a bit of a rush) rather than waiting a moment for it to be safe to continue on the pavement or watching the traffic first before stepping out. Some people have no sense at all when it comes to heavy traffic. Certainly this woman didn't. Maybe after this she'll be more road awareness next time.
if im honest, this looks like a setup for a compo claim. Only problem is, I know of an old bloke that got clapped by a wing mirror from a bus and neve recovered - had headaches and dizziness for the rest of his days (10 years).
Quite an attitude there: the woman clerly thinks she's entitled to do whatever she wants on the road, and then other people should pay for her mistakes. Logic!
Im so glad these communicators are not a thing around the country and only in and around London. So much easier to just use your damn phone and call the controller and actually hear what they say lol
that bus driver didn't do anything wrong of was that woman's fault for walking on the road
Agree
Absolutely
Indeed not - it looked like she was walking beside road then just made a quick turn out on the road without even looking.
Yeah, you can see how she steps down a bit and then she falls on the floor. As you say, she didn't bother looking before doing that and it's not the driver's job to look out for irresponsible people that dont understand that BUS LANES ARE FOR BUSES, AND PAVEMENTS FOR PEOPLE.
She probably did it on purpose for insurance money. The stupid cow.
More like woman hits bus than bus hit woman.
This is exactly what I thought.

"It's an accident. You should have said that in the first place"?!?! Ffs he made it perfectly clear he'd hit her.

Don’t forget to get permission from your garage manager in writing, or you are in for lots of trouble.
Life Reportage How do you power your gopro on the bus for continuous recording? Power Bank?
If that was me getting hit by the bus I would be so embarrassed I'd probably just run away if I was capable.
Boy bus driver was so chilled out
The driver was not doing any speed at all, the pedestrian was walking along the kerb, lost her footing and fell toward the bus, the driver stopped immediately. He was aware of her fully as well as the shed load of hazards inches from his bus in all directions he stopped as soon as she became a danger he stopped. Driver did everything right.
"Bus driver deals with the 2 stupidest women in existence"
“you could have said that in the first place” HE DID
Nice driver at least he helped
That driver is very brave and very good and helpful
Clearly it was the woman's fault! as she didn't look!!! That's why the bus clipped her. Certainly NOT the bus drivers fault. He stopped the bus immediately & got out to check on her. ( Showing deep concern 😱).Some people are really STUPID when walking near the kerb ( of which is STUPID anyway!) This is what can happen if you lose your balance for a second. & fall shit towards the traffic. But, I think she step out into the busy road knowing dam well traffic was heavy. But, still was more interested in getting along ( maybe in a bit of a rush) rather than waiting a moment for it to be safe to continue on the pavement or watching the traffic first before stepping out. Some people have no sense at all when it comes to heavy traffic. Certainly this woman didn't. Maybe after this she'll be more road awareness next time.
She did look and just walked out..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤪
How much compensation did she win after she sued?
I think the title should be “woman walks into moving bus”
if im honest, this looks like a setup for a compo claim. Only problem is, I know of an old bloke that got clapped by a wing mirror from a bus and neve recovered - had headaches and dizziness for the rest of his days (10 years).
Quite an attitude there: the woman clerly thinks she's entitled to do whatever she wants on the road, and then other people should pay for her mistakes. Logic!
I bet she damaged the bus, big time.
lol
Im so glad these communicators are not a thing around the country and only in and around London. So much easier to just use your damn phone and call the controller and actually hear what they say lol
Totally the woman's fault...poor guy, he handled it well xx
I can see the people gathering around the woman
Most people around her at once
@@thestigsbentcousinyeah and I’m glad that she’s alright imagine if the bus have failed to stop in time she would’ve been killed
bruh it almost like she tried to commit sucide dude he used the centercom what wrong with this girl
