What i find funny is how fight broke out there was time tp radio gardi, off duty staff tried to stop the fight but bus was still carrying on its route 🤣

Buses under go a tilt test , you wonder how far that bus tilted.

[@markthebusman]

Easy to overturn any vehicle given the correct conditions. The camber around that corner is quite adverse. A sudden turn from a loaded high sided vehicle would easily cause it to tip

What was the reg number of this bus? Is it 9? JZL or 5 JZL? Although 51JZL to 59JZL were based at Conyngham Road Depot. JZL? 92JZL to 101JZL were based at Ringsend Depot where the 50A operated from. 90JZL and 91JZL were based at Summerhill Depot. I would have thought this bus would have been written off as it was involved in a major accident. As to when this incident happened. Well the ambulance at the 40 second mark has the registration WZV658 which was issued in January 1986. So I'm assuming sometime between 1986 and 1990? Does anyone else have any thoughts?
