A roof of a double-decker bus was ripped off after crashing into a bridge yesterday evening. Police sealed off Barton Lane in Eccles, Greater Manchester, following the major collision after the driver misjudged the height of the bridge.
Pictures from the scene show the chaotic aftermath with the entire roof entirely torn off, leaving chairs on the upper floor completely exposed. A number of police vehicles were also seen in attendance at the accident, the M.E.N reports.
One witness said there were no passengers on board at the time of the crash. They added: "It was a low bridge that the bus tried to go under - but the bridge was too low and cut off the roof of the bus.
