The first image of the bus driver killed in a crash in Orpington last Thursday has been released as police continue to appeal for witnesses.
Kenneth Matcham, from Gravesend, died after a car and two single-decker buses collided in Sevenoaks Road shortly after 10pm on October 31.
The 60-year-old grandfather of seven was pronounced dead at the scene, whilst paramedics treated 15 other casualties, three of whom were 'seriously injured.'
Around 60 firefighters were involved in rescuing passengers, and the driver of the car, a 20-year-old man, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.
At 11am on November 4, buses came to a standstill to pay tribute to Mr Matcham.
A JustGiving fundraiser has also been set up by a Go Ahead London colleague, and has so far raised nearly £19,000.
Detectives from the Met's Serious Collision Investigation Unit continue to investigate, and are appealing for witnesses or anyone with a dash cam, mobile phone or CCTV footage of the collision to get in touch urgently.
Anyone with information is asked to call the incident room number on 020 8285 1574 or police on 101 quoting CAD 9509/31OCT.
