It accords with my own experiences:

A minion of Ken says:
"Many London bus routes, including conventional double-decker,
travel through much quieter, more residential areas, and so comparing
accident statistics for articulated or 'bendy' buses with figures
for the London bus network as a whole is not contrasting like with
like." http://www.london.gov.uk/view_press_...eleaseid=12252

Which seems a fair point.

Not entirely, as it tells us nothing about how different bus types get on
on the roads they share.

As a cyclist I find bendies a nightmare. Some of them even admit they are
a danger to cyclists by displaying yellow triangles on their rear near
sides. Yet they pull in on cyclists at the side of the road and are too
long for cyclists to safely pass them at most stops, unlike conventional
buses.
