A girl has gone viral after a video emerged of her racing a London bus on roller skates.

In the footage, captured by a passenger on a bus driving through Camden, London, the female roller-skater can be seen impressively keeping up with the bus before the vehicle grinds to a halt at the bus stop.

As the doors open, the skater says to the driver: ‘TFL drop your prices now,’ as passengers chuckle.

The bus driver and the skater then amusingly agree to a race – which the girl miraculously wins much to the pleasure of the lady filming the video.

The video has gone viral on both Instagram and X – gaining more than 22,000 likes on the former and two million views on the latter.

But following the Government’s announcement of the budget last month, Transport Secretary Louise Haigh hinted in a letter that the amount of investment Transport for London gets over the next few years will depend on whether Khan decides to freeze fares again.

City Hall said a decision on fares for next year is yet to be made.

A single journey on a London bus without an oyster card currently costs £1.75, with a £5.25 daily cap.

For those under 18, it costs just 85p.
