Gold Class Bus Accident Leaves 1 Dead, 31 Injured

A Gold Class bus travelling from Harare to Rusape, carrying 53 students and seven staff members from Chipinge Junior Primary School, was involved in an accident on Friday afternoon along the Harare-Mutare Road.

According to a statement from Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi, the bus driver lost control while attempting to overtake a haulage truck at the 165 km peg. The bus veered off the road to the right, overturned, and came to rest on its left side.

Tragically, one female adult died at the scene, while twenty-five students and six adults sustained injuries and were transported to Rusape General Hospital for treatment. Said Commissioner Nyathi:

What makes Zimboz to be in such a hurry so as to neglect the safety of other road users? For the sake of trying to make ends meet? Shame the carnage is just too much now........

2 way lanes are a must if we are to reduce these horrific accidents on our major highways.Taking for example the stated stretch from Bromley onwards,it's only a single lane for the 100ks,making it challenging and dangerous to do any overtaking in this rainy season.

APPARENTLY, ZIMBABWE NOLONGER HAS GENUINE BUS DRIVERS! Probability of getting injured or dying from an accident after boarding a bus has skyrocketted to ALARMING LEVELS! The abnormal or extremely rare has become the normal or commonplace! When boarding a bus for a journey to go anywhere, one should never be worried about the possibility of being involved in an acciident. Unfortunately, nowadays I can imagine its now scary boarding a bus.
