Bus safety & accidents http://www.standard.co.uk/news/transport/one-death-every-threeweeks-involving-london-buses-new-figures-show-a3091156.html
Between April 2007 and March this year, bus collisions killed 128 people on the capitals
roads. A further 14 died following slips, trips and falls while on board. The fatalities include
81 pedestrians, six cyclists, 15 bus passengers and three drivers. Six of the people who
died were children while 30 were elderly.
Mr Kearney added: If you kill someone with a car, theres about a 35 per cent chance youll
be convicted. If you kill someone with a bus theres a 13 per cent chance youll be
prosecuted. Quarterly collision data published by TfL shows 2,736 people were injured or
killed on or by TfL buses during the first six months of 2015, but no data is published for the
number of collisions that resulted in no injury.
A separate FOI earlier this year revealed London buses were involved in nearly 25,000
collisions in the year 2014/15 an average of 67 every day.
In addition, only deaths that occur within 30 days of a collision are counted.
