Standard journalistic language. They would use terms such as 'claimed' and 'alleged' even if there had been 100 cameras recording the events. If there had been 100 cameras recording the events, there would still be many people around here denying that it took place.

For each person(eg bus driver) that actually acts in that manner, how many actually want to do this sort of thing but don't.
