It seems to be a slightly out-of-the-ordinary accident - the tram and
bus have ended up quite a way from each other.

(people should avoid the Mail's pictures if they would be offended by
knowing it is tram 2534).

The bit that makes the least sense to me is the line, in both papers,
"sending the bus careering about 100m down the road". 100m is a long
way for a bus to travel apparently not under control.

Obviously I haven't measured it, but it is of that order.
