Heartbreaking, God rest their souls and I pray for that girl's health and recovery!

"We know the bus lost control..." No, lady, the bus did not lose control ! The bus was not in control of the bus, so it could not lose this control. If there was oncoming traffic at the time, the tragedy could have been much worse. This case points to 99 % human error.

@@therealmagadeal3085 He is right, unless the bus lost the brakes or the driver had a medical emergency then its 100% the driver's fault.

I think it’s a language/translation error. English is a third language for many in SA.

@godfreyberry1599 Месяц назад

The complete disregard by public transport of the rules of the road from courtesy, adequate driver training, licensing to roadworthiness in SA has become a national sport.

South Africa roads have become a death trap. Between the road deaths, crime, violence etc the place is a mess

@LeonKotze70 Месяц назад

In this case, if the road was that bad, the driver wouldn't have been able to go that fast and would have made the turn over the bridge...

@pnkuna3072 Месяц назад

Road conditions are the least causes of road fatality. Tiredness, drink and drive, drugs, speeding, internal and external pressure, basically 85 per cent of accidents are human factors. We can include witchcraft on the list.😂

@@AJ-sv5qg personally, I believe it has more with our drivers to do than the road... And, the roads are BAD in a lot of places.

That kind of accident maybe not avoidable but less lives would have been lost if the bridge is not curve in design. So much for human ambition...
