Defo a Bolton bus on a 360 very sad indeed

2561 V35ENC was the vehicle involved. A very tragic incident, my condolences to the family of the pedestrian involved.

Before anyone suspects, the driver would have been arrested by default, as this always happens in such cases. It's not so much a case of the police automatically casting suspicion, but they have to do it... if anything to protect the driver.

It does, every 30 minutes, but there are short journeys also every 30 minutes to Golborne only.

Condolences to the family involved at this rather sad time .

Its best to leave blame to the relevant authorities , doesnt help that there is a picture of the bus involved in the press.

Young mum as well heart goes out to everyone. Looking at the comments on the article people are saying the driver wasn't speeding or doing anything he shouldn't have been ie texting.

Well, he was obviously doing something to be charged with dangerous driving
