On the balance of probabilities the lorry driver negligently pulled into the slip road too late and struck the rear of the bus; the bus driver acted reasonably in slowing due to traffic ahead and did not brake negligently; the greater second impact caused the plaintiff's shoulder injury; accordingly the lorry driver (and his employer) were wholly at fault for the collision and the 1st third party succeeds on its counterclaim for repair and loss of use.
