- After colliding at Centre Point and blocking Oxford Street, Tottenham Court Road and New Oxford Street, the bus drivers needed to move their buses as the West End easily became gridlocked. But the not-in-service route 25 bus had an engine failure. Happy Tube Strike days..
route 25 - Tower Transit VN36158 - Volvo B9TL
route 390 - Metroline LT117 - New Routemaster
The 'London Transport' bus driver training school, at Chiswick was at one time the best training centre in the world for training bus drivers.
This particular driver has not received, the intensive and thorough programme of driver and skid training.
It is in one way not his fault. The blame and fault rests with the company who trained him, and then passed him out as competent. He clearly is not. However many bus drivers today are expected to work longer shifts on duty, because their companies are thinking more about their profits and less about their employees.
Should you take a ride on a bus in London, you will find many drivers are driving at excessive speeds because they are trying to make up time.
I do feel very sorry for this man and his colleagues. They are trying to do the impossible. In the end more accidents are going to happen, so please spare a thought for the driver behind the wheel. All the best.👍
The New Routemaster has a longer wheelbase than most buses! You need more room to turn them after driving regular Enviro and Wright/Eviseto buses!
DoubleDeckerAnton hi
DoubleDeckerAnton i agree with you
omg ur here
Yes but if your a professional driver that’s no excuse just bad driving like most London bus drivers now ,KT trained us properly don’t know where half of them get their licences from now
The driver is an idiot. There was plenty of room. He should try using g his mirrors, there was no excuse for that at all. If that driver worked for me he would be out of the door!
Yo those busses look so good. They look classy but still futuristic. Great design mainly the round headlights
They look like soulless fish.

Most of the central london buses are the Borismasters - thankfully I like them
It wasn't engine failure, there's a sensor on the bonnet which if it thinks it's open, it prevents the bus from being started.
That makes sense.
yeah thays how it works
Loose sensor though.... Like morse code as you drive along.
It's the Routemasters fault Because the Gemini was mostly round the curve and then the Routemaster hits the Gemini
2:29 aww the 10 used to exist. What a big stack of New Route masters though!!!
Poor route 25, SHAME ON YOU 390!
Why can’t the drivers shut up. They’re making a bad impression in the company to the public
Exactly. Shouting and yelling won't solve the issue
Shouldn't have shut the Chiswick training centre where I learned to drive. Saying that, the old Routemasters were much better because you had the wheels up front instead of behind you. Poke them round the corner and the rest of the bus follows. Fantastic buses and a pleasure to drive.
Isnt that the case with every bus, you poke them out the front and rest of the bus follows or does it stay behind with new buses
@@thug2772 No Tayyib, you have to allow for the overhang at the front if the wheels are behind you. Wheels up front you don't have an overhang there.
390 (if I'm not mistaken) was the last new bus route to be allocated RMs, it having arisen from splitting the old 10.
Look at the damage between them two buses
I've seen worse. One yesterday, and again today.
Wtf SOO MUCH BEEPING
To be honest the routemaster shouldve waited for the gemini 2 to move up a bit more
Such accidents can't be avoided, dapat laging maingat. Ugh. Stay safe!
VanessaKhrisna yes they can lol
Yes such accident can be avoided if they exercise road courtesy
big difference in chasing a tiger around a field in Nigeria with a knife and fork and driving a bus in London
In such situations. Do they have to stand on the same spot for minute after minute? Or could they fix details later, move the buses and allow traffic to pass?
SSEnrich if the busses are still driveable, then we must exchange details, and then continue with the route. When we’re back at the garage we must log all the details into the designated accident site within 48 hours
More reasons why those buses were a mistake to this network. This video single-handedly brings me constant joy. Having to see those eyesores everywhere in London is beyond depressing, especially over some of my favourite routes
which bus?

Extended Bodies for Most of the Buses
Much as I am not comfortable to ask the depot why they stopped running the London Suburban Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW’s on routes N26, 30, 121, 230, 271, 349, N279 And 158 why can’t we make the same make of the Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW Buses but Modernise the insides of these Buses. Also make it low floor up and down and also extend the middle body part of these vehicles a little bit more so there will be more space for the wheelchair users. By the way, if you could remake and Modernise these vehicles could they also make it into a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW Version’s that if it will be possible and to Modernise the insides of these Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW’s make it low floor up and down and also extend the middle body part of these vehicles a Little bit more so there will be more space and even a London Suburban Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMC and also extend the middle body part of these vehicles a little bit more. Why couldn’t we have those London Suburban Buses Pale red on the top roof Pale red again on the top middle Milk Chocolate brown on the middle Creamy white on the Bottom Middle and Milk Chocolate Brown again on the Bottom on most of those kind of those Particular Double Decker Vehicles. Could you put the Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox in the Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMC and also put the Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox in the Volvo TD102KF Engine East Lancs Olympus and also extend the middle body part of these vehicles a little bit more and also turn most of them to a London Suburban Buses. By the way could you also make the routes N26, 349, 121, N279 and 271 into a London Suburban Buses and have a mixture of a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMC and Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Gardner 6LX and Gardner 6LXC Diesel Engine Olympian ECW Version’s. Could they also transfer the Arriva Bus Depots from Hackney to Stagecoach company so they can replace all the Arriva buses so that all of them can go to Birmingham and Leeds and they can be replaced by Stagecoach Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox Volvo TD102KF Engine East Lancs Olympus and also Extend the Middle body part of these Vehicles and that includes A Mixture of a Stagecoach Loud 3-Speed Voith Diwa Gearbox Volvo TD102KF, Gardner 6LXC and Gardner 6LXCT Engine Northern Counties Palatine One and that Includes a Loud 4-Speed Leyland Hydra cyclic Automatic Gearbox Scania N230UD Enviro 400 MMC Vehicles A Little Bit More. Can Arriva London Bus Company’s Replace Most of their Wight Buses so they can also transfer them to Birmingham and Also Manchester so they can be Replaced by Loud 3-Speed ZF Ecomat Gearboxes Volvo D10A Engine East Lancs Olympus and also Extend the Middle body part of these Vehicles A Little Bit More Thank You Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Very Much.

I genuinely live for buses and comedy.
🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Oh look, weren’t that bad, just a scratch or two.
NB4L window slightly smashed
I have a question. When a busses crashes like these ones did what do the compines do????
Hilton Xavier
the company's try to get insurance or compensation from transport for London and they continue their route like normal.
TECHXPERT OFFICIAL hey thank for respondresponding
JOOOORRRRDAN
ok thats one way to escape oxford circus
Naughty Tower Transit at least the Metroline Driver is trying is hardest to move his bus.
+Londonbuses 2015 Driving standards seem to have dropped somewhat lately?
dont say that because it couldn't drive on
25 is a Stagecoach?
@@CookieCft yep ik?
It could not even move, fact check things before posting.
Good grief, hold the fecking camera still!
Well so much for the new route master
I have been on a 25
This must have been a disaster for the British, probably a couple of 100 safety officers on site to solve this horrible situation...🙄
The answer is very simple! The Metroline Driver needed re-training in the other bus had it's hand brake on!
25 & 390: (hit each other)
390: (sets itself free)
25: Can’t start!
390 & 98: (don’t give a f**k)
10 & 134: (doesn’t give a s**t)
Other 98: Bwoah...
I`ll get you butler eugghhh eughhhh eughhhh.........
Now I know why I saw a damaged routemaster
Was it a 390
I'm Singaporean and Singapore also got Bus service 25
doesnt everywhere have a service 25?
I've got on the 25 in London but got off before the last stop. I had no idea it went to Singapore.

From Ilford to Singapore sounds like a fun journey
Buses: crash
Americans: oh no
Others: First Time?
British *chuckles* I wonder why aren't the Asians even freaking out now
That one Singaporean girl: *filming a tiktok in the middle of the accident*
Me as a singaporean: ik dude some of us are such kepos :/
two bus crach on 390 25
Well that driver (the one presumably not at fault here) has no understanding of basic trigonometry and moments. Full right lock and ease her forward would have safely separated them, no need to reverse.
theres a bus in that video that tfl got rid of...
Forward Hard right hand down. Back would have swung out.
390 was very badly happened to the bus driver was badly no problem 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😯😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
oh dear
ayyyyyyyy ! the driver is a fool
which driver
HT do absolutely anything not to drive NBfLs - Someone purposely rammed LT98 into LT103
ultradude973 lol really? Is there any media coverage or CZcams video
ultradude973 yes, saw this after 2 years XD
331..
eyo tower transit and metroline fight 😂
Bet you can’t fight
You can take Juele line to here and stop a London Bridge
Ay
Not my favourite Volvo B9TL with an engine failure and a decal loss and damaged body! Somewhat these bus drivers hate the RouteMaster. Why not waste £100m (idfk how much) of this bus and crash it on my favourite bus! Blithering idiots.
390 is next to my house
The Plaxton President driver couldn't afford to wait anymore LOL. For those people who don't what Plaxton President is, it's at 1:45
Bus and Lorry Driver Saint Leonard I think that's a Volvo with Plaxton bodywork
WHAT CAN YOU SAY WELL HE FOUND THE HORN NOW ALL HE NEEDS TO DRIVE THE FUCKING THING
Very poor standard of driving
what u doing...
thats a peach when u just drove into some one.
hmmm professional bus drivers, can't even keep the shirt in trousers and non standard shoes.
Scruffy definitely
0:27 0:38
I think the 390 is better but it’s not a 25 as a bus 🚎
Their horn sounds like scania
Sound like DAFs
@@jakethomasorton It is a VDL/DAF horn I think Wrightbus still use certain parts from VDL/DAF as the steering wheel is from a VDL/DAF even in integral Wrights
2 buses
That is a lot of scratching on the back.... Must've cost them a lot
won't cost a lot just a new paint job
South East Spotter No a new window too
it won't cost a lot just some plastic paint and new lights and that's done.
Can't drive half of these bus drivers
2:02
YAY BUS IS OUT
I'm sorry but The Metroline (Hocks and spits) bus driver should have been more professional! If you can't get through use code Blue! Maybe M'line should consider instigating a Safety Training School. This is so Sad as My M'line Instructor was Dave Arnsby - what a great bus instructor - he would be disgusted by this - as am I who am now an A.D.I Qualified PCV Instructor! 3 times I tried to offer you my skills to prevent this M'Line and 3 times you turned me down because I'm OVER QUALIFIED! I watch this and rest my case!
I applied with National Express - Sipson Depot! Their depot Manager also turned me down for the same reason! (Over qualified) - he saw me as a threat to his job! It's a shame he didn't look closer to home as Sipson Depot no longer exists! It moved to Reading and he lost his job! National Express did that! I might have been able to save his depot with my experience but he chose not to employ me! Again - I rest my case!

gosh what happens
I’m Japanese too!!
I hate it
Bloody busses ought to be taken off the roads
How the Bloody Hell are you going to get from A - B , you silly old Moo !
charles. stewart exactly
It's the cyclists fault!
charles. stewart . I will drive my bentley to get around or my range rover or my roll royce or my audi r8. U silly MOO 😂
Typical New routmasters no one likes them there too long.
Yeah, it's even more hell on Leytons narrow roads
Yup it was a bad idea giving them to the 55
TrainsHunter WCML yeah i liked the tridents on that route
i liked the spirit of london E400
i agree.
The crash isn't that bad they just rammed into eachother
That's potentially £10,000 worth of damage Noah!
shit bus 390
Mpungi Florian im dleting you
Well ever since the 10 was scrapped the 390 has been very useful in taking me from Hyde Park Corner to Kings Cross, and from Victoria to Oxford Circus after the 73 got cut back
Black on black hate crime. LOL
Norwich hasbway better buses and drivers
Few if any black drivers
Both drivers need there L Plates back on
