Coach slipped off road at Charleston Farmhouse, Lewes

Whilst trying to pass another vehicle, the driver of this coach found himself in a deep ditch, grounding both axles. The coach was loaded with elderly people who could not get out through the main exit as it was against the hedge. The emergency door was very high and steps not easy to navigate. The emergency services had to attend before recovery took place in order to get all the passengers off safely. The lights had been left on, so the vehicle had to be slave started before being recovered. No further damage was caused and it continued its journey.
