It has happened yet again. The beloved discount busses that we all love to travel on has claimed 4 lives over the weekend. The picture of scattered luggage says it all for this tragic accident. While traveling from Greensboro, North Carolina, Sky Express Bus crashed in Caroline County Virginia, about 30 miles from Richmond, Virginia. The bus that holds 58 passengers turned over. No one walked away from the bus, and several people are suffering from life threatening injuries. This is yet another crash in the last months that has claimed lives. So far, the cause of the accident is said to have been caused by driver fatigue. I can attest to ridding on one of these busses during a brief scare, when the driver dosed off momentarily. It isn’t a pleasant experience at all. As we all know, this isn’t going to detour the majority of people from chartering these discount busses, but the only thing we can hope for, is more crack downs on these companies, who are taking risk for a bargain price.
