Tried to control on seeing the truck approaching, but failed: Karnataka accident bus driver
The driver of the bus that met with an accident said that he tried to control his vehicle on seeing the overspeeding truck approaching from the opposite direction, but couldn’t.
“The truck came from the other side of the road divider and hit. It was overspeeding. I was maintaining the speed of 60-70 (km/hr) at that time. I saw the vehicle coming from the front. I know only the vehicle (truck) hitting the bus, after that I don’t know what happened and how I was brought out,” Rafiq, the bus driver who is undergoing treatment, told reporters.
He said, “I tried to control the bus, on seeing the vehicle approaching from the opposite direction. My bus even touched the other vehicle, which was moving next to us; I don’t know what vehicle it was. But, couldn’t (control).” Mohammed Sadiq, the cleaner of the bus who is also undergoing treatment with minor injuries, said he was thrown out of the bus due to the impact.
