Buses don't just come off the road though, were they avoiding a small child, did a car come into their lane and they swerved to avoid them, or did the driver just fancy parking up?
I'd expect a news article to have a bit more depth than 'bus came off road and got stuck in mud'

Other than to save face of a company, why would discussing 'operational incidents', as they like to call them, be frowned upon?

Incidents like that require a thorough investigation which includes speaking to those involved and potentially any witnesses. A news article should not prejudice that investigation, even for the sake of enthusiasts wanting to know the far-end of a fart about everything.

Have you read the Chronicle before? That's never stopped them in the past!

Reading what the Chronicle has written on a subject is a quick way of discounting that option from the range of possibilities .....
