The report I heard said it was in Rochdale, 22 people injured
Oh dear, I do hope those people are OK.
Whenever this happens, you have to wonder whether the problem is caused by the drivers sometimes driving single and sometimes double-deck vehicles, and simply forgetting which type they're driving on that day? Because, let's face it, you just wouldn't take a risk like that with a busload of passengers. Surely.

No, but there are different types of mistakes, such as minor errors of judgement, then there are serious mistakes, so what category would you put a bridge strike in?
Quite. People make mistakes - this I understand.
When I make a minor mistake at work I can usually correct it myself, or my colleagues help me out and we can mitigate it. But if I was to make a major mistake then I would expect there to be consequences. To me, a bridge bash in a HGV is a major mistake, and it should have consequences for the driver responsible.
