An elderly woman has died after being hit by a bus in north London.

Dulcie Bailey, 89, was at the bus terminus at Tally Ho Corner, North Finchley, on Saturday afternoon when the double-decker bus hit her.

She was taken to the Royal Free Hospital with leg injuries, but died eight hours later.

A post-mortem examination will be carried out on Monday. Police are asking anyone who saw what happened to contact them.

Those buses come in so fast, I'm not suprised it happened!!

:roll: If she had been hit by a train it would be the top story, Christian Wolmar would be being asked why there shouldn't be cotton wool dispensers at every fence post etc...

Well of course it would, as the question would have to be asked as to why she was on the tracks at the time! :roll:
As it was on the road, it's not such a big safety problem, so to speak!
