WORST ROAD ACCIDENT SINCE 1982 KILLS 40 IN FRANCE

More than 40 pensioners on a day trip have been killed after their bus crashed with a truck on a country road in south-western France.

The collision happened near Puisseguin in the Gironde wine region, east of Bordeaux, after the bus had set off from a nearby town. The truck driver also died.

The French president said he was "plunged into sadness by the tragedy".

This is the worst French road disaster since one in 1982 when 52 people died.

The crash happened at around 07:30 local time (05:30 GMT).
