H'mm, four men in their 20s, travelling with (or racing?) another car, at
2:20am, at a high enough speed to kill one and critically injure another...
What could possibly be wrong with that?

Yes, it sounds like the car which crashed was overtaking another, which
apparently fled the scene. The bus tried to swerve to avoid (from the
photos) to no avail.

"Boris Johnson told reporters that the bus driver was ‘probably not at fault’."

Well that's nice of him.
I know that road well - I thought there were speed cameras near the
crash site but maybe I'm mistaken.
