17 people, including pedestrians, passengers, and a driver have been injured, with 15 in hospital, after a bus mounted the side of the pavement opposite Victoria Station, in London today.

There were no life-threatening injuries reported after the collision which happened at around 8.20am.

Eyewitnesses reported that the bus was moving at high speed when it crashed into a barrier.

Maintenance workers who were behind the barriers told of how the bus driver crawled out the front covered in blood, and how they were trying to help everyone out of the bus.

They explained if the barrier wasn’t there, they probably wouldn’t have escaped injury, and that it was a miracle no one was killed.

This isn’t the first time a bus has crashed in the vicinity of Victoria.

Last January, Catherine Finnegan, 56, died after she was hit by a double-decker bus next to the station, and Melissa Burr, 32, died in August 2021 after a bus driver mistakenly pressed the accelerator pedal rather than the brake.

There have been no arrests, but police are appealing for any witnesses or anyone with information to contact them.
