The one bus SMIDSY I remember was on Princes Street in Edinburgh. Three bright purple double-deckers were parked up against the kerb. A jogger came running down the footway and promptly ran into the middle bus. How on earth you miss 3 parked up double-deckers is beyond me!

Probably going for a Strava KOM, I know a bloke who almost got run over doing that.

OMG why didn't I watch this back in the day. Brilliant American version of our carry on films. 😂

Will the footage be reviewed as a matter of routine?
I don't think the driver of the bus I was in would report his colleague, they were driving the same bus number

They'd have had to review footage from both buses if a complaint was made, or contact was made between them.

Other than that, can't see them pulling two buses off the road to check.

I've managed to walk into the front of a bus coming my way twice.
In both cases they were at the start of a seizure. Gone, but still able to move as normal.
The second time I came too in the A&E, a police officer at the side of the trolley. "My mate" hadn't come with me, but had taken my cards from my pocket, as he looked for an ID card I carried.

First call upon leaving was the bank to cancel the cards, and finding they'd been used whilst I was in A&E. I'd the police incident number ready.
