Comment | My guess is, yes and they would usually send this route and driver out with a single decker, but today for whatever reason they sent him out in a double decker without factoring in the bridge. Then the driver being used to driving his usual single decker drove the usual route on 'hypnotic autopilot' without thinking about the bridge - until it sheared his bus in half.
If correct, there are multiple levels of failure here from depot managers right down to driver. |
