Watch the moment bus a full of children speeds around a corner before horror crash
Video footage shows a 212 bus full of schoolchildren speeding around a corner moments before a horror crash that left 19 people injured.
CCTV video seen from The Corner Cafe shows a woman nearly being hit at the zebra crossing by the double-decker just after 8 am this morning [TUES].
The bus is seen to swerve as the woman jumps across to the pavement.
Tina Hogan, 58, who works at the cafe, said: "The woman came in such a fright and said that she was nearly hit.
"The bus was speeding - I'm sure of it. Some people have told me that they think the brakes were shot.
"The poor woman was shocked."
Paramedics rushed to Highams Park, east London after the bus crashed into an appliances store.
Emergency services were called to the scene after the incident on Selwyn Avenue, in Chingford.
Witnesses say they rushed to the scene to help children off the bus.
Five casualties, including three schoolchildren, were taken to hospital while more than a dozen other passengers suffered minor injuries and were treated at the scene.
The driver of the bus had to be cut free from the vehicle before being taken to the hospital.
Another have-a-go hero, who was drinking tea in the cafe at the time, revealed he also went to go help the injured.
He said: "I was in the coffee shop and heard the crash.
"We couldn't open the front doors they were jammed shut. We got everyone off when we could.
"We went to see the driver, he was stuck but he was conscious.
"I just stayed with the injured - there was a lot of blood from the head injuries.
"The girl was not moving initially, I thought she was dead.
"There was a strong pulse and it looked like a lot of blood was coming out from near her eye."
