      Thank you Michael. I read on nottslive at about 0915 that an accident had occurred so I walked to the site. I waited about 30 mins before the recovery vehicle arrived, and after the discussion it took another 30 mins. So I did cool down a bit, but soon warmed up on the walk back. Interesting that the bus is back in service today.

    As the bus is not badly damaged it should be back in use fairly soon.
    Just a few panels to replace.

    As an ex bus driver I feel for the driver. It’s all about speed, keeping to timetables that are almost always impossible to achieve.

      At peak times it cannot keep to the timetable. Looking at bustimes for this journey it kept to the timetable very well indeed.

      It was called devil's elbow many years ago when it was much more of a double bend. The tightness of the curve was reduced slightly but it still creates problems. A collision between a pronto bus and a car several years ago killed two people in the car. I was due to get that bus once it had arrived in Nottingham, but had to take a different bus to Leapool and walk along the A60. The car had a massive cover over it when I passed it.

    that was a airline that the breakdown man was fitting to bus for brakes yes there will be more damage on way out than going in but insurance covers it if you dont know why he lifts it up its so he can extend his extender under front axle to use chains to make it secure for movement i have done this before

    The only way i figure this out is either the bus driver wasn't concentratingor was very tired or was forced off the road by some IMBECILE!!! on the wrong side of the road ( probably on their BLOODY PHONE!!!)😠😠😠😠😡😡😡. As the bus doesn't look damaged but, a shock for any on board passengers & the driver. But, sometimes damage can't been seen not obvious at first until fully checked over. I mean it could have been faulty brakes or something else to cause this bus to leave the road anything is possible I suppose.

      @DaveBaker-vb3jg Thank you for your reasoned comments. As the bus had started this journey in Chesterfield I think it's feasible to assume that there was a driver change at Mansfield. In this area it is getting light at 0752...not dark at all.
