This is my usual bus (@malbec :grinning_face:)

I’m glad I wasn’t on this particular one.

Vehicle or driver malfunction?

I think that bus was on diversion at the time, but they don’t usually turn right into Great Peter Street, but continue down from Marsham Street into Great Smith Street. I wonder if medical episode. Also if he had carried on down Great Peter Street the turning into Millbank is pretty tight.

It has to be said that I don’t usually get it around that part of town. My limits are Brixton and Crystal Palace in either direction.

Looking through some pictures; this one is a Leyland Royal Tiger. It has since been immaculately preserved in it’s original livery.

Before that, I spotted the coach in 2016 in Detling. Was a good opportunity to put my badge on the coach it was designed for! :nerd_face:

There was also a piece of music by th Leyland Motors Brass Band written specifically for this model:

Looks a bit like pedal confusion to me. Oh shit. Too close to taxi, must brake. Hits wrong pedal. Also looks like they turned too early.

New Routemaster is quite a bit longer than a standard decker used on TfL services. Long wheelbase= getting position bang on before negotiating the turn.

Just my opinion though. I have not driven a New Routemaster!

Don’t know why reporters go on about MG being British when the Chinese bought it years ago.
You get the same bollocks with the MG electric cars, They are CHINESE
