A man had to drive his epileptic two-year-old son to hospital in his bus after an ambulance was delayed.
Bus driver Ross Cork was dropping passengers off in Norwich when he got a call his son Riley was having a fit.
After calling his manager at Konectbus, he drove to his father's home where Riley was being treated by a paramedic.
Despite sending a rapid response vehicle, ambulance bosses confirmed an ambulance was not immediately available, as it was "extremely busy".
Mr Cork, 27, was driving the double-decker number five bus linking Queen's Hills, Costessey, with Norwich city centre when he received a call from his wife at about 10:30 GMT on Saturday.
