Default Accident in Croydon

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


According to several eye-witness reports, the bus driver was knocked
unconscious in the collision, but the bus continued running in gear
until brought to a halt when it rammed a parked car. One can only
speculate how worse the tragedy would have been on a weekday.

So did the bus swerve around a car and hit the tram, then later hit a
car; or are there two dented cars? They "both" seem to be silver.
