An un-manned 997 today crashed into the Kippax Centre's medical centre (which was empty at the time). No one injured, of course.
what's the source? any pix?
WIN News is the source, and if you manage to record the Late Edition (at 11.30pm) and upload it - then there will be footage for all. lol
wow you're a demanding kid. you're lucky that i'll be up at 11.30 tonight so i'll set a tape and go to sleep
damn, i generally watch win news and didnt tonight for some reason. saw a short clip of footage right at the end.
lol it didn't look very damaged from looking at the footage.
Well as usual, since im not a local anymore i dont get any scoops...
The bus (997) crashed into the Post Office at Kippax Fair at approximately 4.30pm this afternoon.
Note: Attachments are Removed once they are 60 days old due to Automatic Maintenance.
Ha ha, gees, some driver's set for a bluey :P
But you're not a local Mat, you don't know what goes on in Canberra :P.
It had to happen to a PR100.3. Ver ist ze Driver! I Vill get Ze Vind up him for Zat. Even though that is more a Germania accent then French, I still make my point as such.
My poor French Temptress, how dare she be treated with such Carelessness? :P
What is it with 900 series buses crashing in west belconnen area?

ahh. the riot act. totally unbelieveable news source :D
but hmm, i see some new route proposal to 'the front of kippax post office' turning into a great idea. haha.
Also the new ACTION slogan is "Going Your Way" & people that got off that bus probably where going into Kippax Fair. So the bus was just going their way.
