UK Ski Bus crashes near l'Alpe d'Huez

11 british tourists have been slightly hurt on Saturday afternoon after their transfer coach hit a building in the industrial wasteland of Livet and Gavet on the road from l'Alpe d'Huez to Grenoble (St Geoirs) airport. The crash was caused by the bus driver suffering from an 'attack'. The driver felt unwell and tried to stop his coach rapidly, hitting a house on the RN91 in the process. The accident caused some major tailbacks.
