<p>Nineteen people were taken to hospital, including four who were airlifted, after the collision on Forest Road in Newport on Sunday afternoon sparked a major incident.</p>

<p>Hampshire Police said three other people travelling in a red Fiat Bravo with the woman who died at the scene were taken to hospital in a “serious condition”.</p>
<p>The bus driver, a man in his 50s who had to be cut from his cab, was also believed to have been seriously injured, while 10 of his passengers and four who were in a silver Mini Cooper were taken to hospital as a precaution.</p>

<p>Detectives were investigating the circumstances of the crash that happened at the junction with Betty Haunt Lane at about 12.45pm.</p>
<p>Bus operator Southern Vectis said it is believed the double-decker ended up in the Fiat’s path after a crash moments earlier.</p>
<p>General manager Richard Tyldsley said: “Early indications suggest a car pulled out in front of a route 7 bus and our driver was unable to avoid it. The bus was forced into the path of another car.</p>
<p>“At this stage the full circumstances of the incident are unclear but sadly I understand one of the cars’ occupants has died.</p>
<p><!--Ads7--></p>
<p>“This is very distressing for all concerned and I would like to pass our sincere condolences to their family and friends.”</p>
<p>The operator would assist the police and conduct its own investigation, he added.</p>
<p>A spokeswoman for Isle of Wight NHS Trust said a “major incident” was declared just after 1.50pm, with four people being airlifted to mainland hospitals and 15 being taken to St Mary’s Hospital in Newport.</p>
