Fourteen passengers remained in hospital, police said on Tuesday, with two in intensive care

Police allege the driver of a horror bus crash that left 10 wedding guests dead and 25 injured was driving “too quick” for the conditions of the road, as two survivors remain in a critical condition.

On Tuesday morning, superintendent David Waddell alleged the driver of the bus carrying passengers from a wedding venue to their hotel in Singleton in foggy conditions late on Sunday “entered that roundabout driving in a manner that was inconsistent with the conditions”. “The speed was too quick for him to negotiate that roundabout, causing the vehicle to fall onto its left side and cause those injuries,” Waddell alleged.
