repetition of fatal bus accidents; A nightmare for road users.
The fatal rollover of a bus carrying NGL company employees on the Dasht Abbas to Murmury Dahlran route, which left 12 dead and 16 injured, has once again turned the issue of road safety, the fatigue of the public transport fleet and the weakness of monitoring the performance of drivers into one of the serious concerns of public opinion.
Recent incidents show that the issue of bus safety is not limited to one area or one type of travel. Today, Sunday, November 24, a bus derailed at 06:49 at the 55th kilometer of the Mashhad-Nishbur road, and as a result 14 people were injured. According to the initial report, 28 people were involved in this incident. A few days ago, the bus carrying the members of Sahar Academy's women's basketball team overturned on the Abdul Khan highway in Shush and 18 people were injured.
Repetition of these cases shows that the problem cannot be solved just by blaming the driver or issuing several orders after the accident. Of course, identifying the exact cause of each accident requires an expert investigation, and technical failure, human error, or a lack of road safety cannot be regarded as the clear cause of the Dahlran accident before the results are published. However, the President's order to investigate the NGL incident must result in the publication of clear and measurable results.
