A bus displaying the message "parking problem? - maybe you're the problem!" had to be towed away after reversing into a damaged bollard.

The 5A bus was travelling along Poplar Avenue, in Hangleton, Hove, on Thursday when it met an oncoming vehicle.

To allow the vehicle to pass, the bus had to reverse but the driver did not see a bollard.

Roger French, the managing director of Brighton and Hove Buses, said: "The bollard was already knocked over and the concrete base was sticking up. The driver couldn't see the concrete and reversed over it."

No one is believed to have been injured in the crash which happened at about 1.30pm yesterday.
