A Wiltshire man will appear in court after being charged over a school bus crash that left several children injured.

Christopher Giles, from Trowbridge, is one of four men charged with an offence in connection to the incident, under the Road Traffic Act 1988.

The crash took place in Somerset, on the B3090 Oldford Hill near Frome, on Monday, November 28 last year.

A coach had been carrying staff and students from Frome College when it left the road, ending up on its roof, at around 3.35pm.

Somebody may be found guilty of a Section 40A offence if they use or cause another to use a motor vehicle on a road when the condition of the vehicle, or its accessories or equipment, involves danger of injury to any person.
