Synopsis

Shattered by the most mysterious event of his life, forced to abandon his high-rolling job in The City, with a young wife and baby at home, Matt Grant faces ruin. Then he sees that advert on the back of a London bus. How hard can it be..? Crash The Bus is one man's true story of colliding with his own destiny at the wheel of a London bus - and taking everyone on board with him. A 21st Century pilgrim's progress through London's eternally chaotic cityscape, Crash The Bus is part novel, part scatological comedy, part tragic history, part philosophy, part farce - and wholly unforgettable.
