    If a bus driver disobeys traffic law and causes nuisance to people, and someone objects to it by taking the bus driver to task, then there is sudden strike from bus staff. But here why the bus staff are not objecting?

    I only feel very sad when I hear the news of an accident. The busdrivers drive as if they have no end. Ignoring everything and they drive like mad. Unless we put strict speed limits and speed governors in bus these accidents will continue. Sad state of affairs.
