Silent Running wrote: » At first he was distracted and he kept a reasonably straight line. Then he went right hand over the top of the steering wheel and completed the full turn with his left hand. Really does look like a deliberate act.

Can't speak to his actual intention (deliberately swerving across the road and/or hitting the barrier doesn't... necessarily... mean he intended killing everyone) but that's what I say. Like look at him, he deliberately turns the wheel and follows through. Crash barrier could do with being a bit stronger too.

This is why armchair detectives are dangerous because they don't understand how something happens biologically or psychologically etc and then we have reams of people believing he purposefully drove the bus off the bridge.
