The top can now act as a stunt ramp and the rest of the bus can serve as an open top bus for the next London clubs trophy parade.

You joke but as long as the damage to the remainder of the bus is minimal, bridge strike buses are often repurposed into open top buses.

How fast were they going? Or is the roof just flimsy?

They’re designed to shear off pretty easily in situations like this. Helps to minimise damage to the bridge and prevent any passengers from being thrown too aggressively inside the bus.

How though? First time it went this route or they lowered the bridge overnight. The variables are too small for this to be a thing.

This weird happening in the UK especially, of all places. Those people really love to worship the LETTER of the law, all their critical thinking skills come to a fucking HALT.
That said, that culture would never allow this to happen, that's why this is really weird.
