Private bus knocks down two little children

NOW death sentence can be given if Driver is responsible
law has evolved after the catastrophic train and bus accident in which the bus driver was judged to be hanged...if you use public transportation you can see how irresponsible they are..

So what is the punishment ? Two weeks and back to the killer bus ? This is really absurd ! When we cross a double line,we get the works by the cops but these killers most of the time get away easily !!

you only need to travel on kandy rd, avissawela or such major highway to see these intercity buses speeding and at times on the wrong side of the road. why has the authorities failed to stop these bus operators in spite of repeated murders by these private bus operators? why cannot these services be handed over to private companies area by area to provide a proper service? the competition between these operators is what gets these drivers to race each other for passengers.

Cancel the bus drivers licence and throw him into jail for a good number of years.
