Must have not changed the worn tires to save few rupees. Are the commercial passenger buses inspected periodically by a authority?

Knowing the current weather situation why do the School Authority arranged a trip to Nuwaraeliya. The person arranged the trip should be punished.

What a tragedy. School authorities must think twice when organizing educational trips to up-country due to prevailing bad weather conditions. I know, certain leading schools in Colombo and other major cities, forcing parents to send their children on such trips without paying attention to the safety and other consequences. End of the day, poor children and their parents have to suffer.

Accidents and arbitrary attacks are common in Sri Lanka these days.
