Its the bus drivers who have to be blamed for there notorious driving style, as well as there should be an ammendment done in the way licenses are issued and the law regarding the license. Police are not the only cause yes they are part and parcel of it, but then again even pedestrians they too at times cross without any concern, just because a person is on the the zebra crossing doesn't mean that they could cross as they wish via DM Android App

Manslaughter under the influence of liquor - license cancelled forever.
Reckless driving causing injury to humans and damage to public or private property - license suspended for 4 years.
Breaking common road laws - 15,000.00 fine.
This is my challenge to the authorities.

We see these news everyday. Nothing seems to be done. Bus drivers are law unto themselves. Research shows that 60% of private bus drivers take narcotics of some kind to cope with long hours at the wheels. They will be morons until this is sorted out by the authorities. But where are they???????????????????????? via DM iPad app
