Simon Smith has just crossed Gun Street when the accident happened.

Unbelievably he got up and walked away after he had been thrown along the pavement. In a quintessentially British response, he dusted himself off and went into a pub. He is believed to have suffered only minor injuries.

Reading Buses have said that the company is investigating the “awful incident”. No arrests have been made.
