On the one hand, bloody hell. On the other hand, look at where the bus was scheduled to go.

Not the first time a traction engine has fallen off a lofty in Essex, but the first I've heard of one landing on another vehicle.

The driver is in a critical but stable condition in a London hospital. So he didn't even get to the posted destination.

That's likely to be a license lost for the lorry driver too, the police tend to take a dim view on losing your load.
