    4 buses have crashed in Glasgow city centre, afaik 6 people seriously injured and scores wounded :(


    But this has happened in a really busy street where you can walk faster than the traffic :confused:


    So close to Xmas as well :( :( :(

    Sorry but for some reason I giggled. Not at people being hurt, but it reminds me of a scene in Airplane!

    Apparently one of the buses landed on its side, hence the large amount of casualties. As it is however, it could have been much worse (it is a very low railing on that bridge, if the bus had gone on to the pavement before toppling, it would have ended up in the river).
