School Bus Crash kills 36 Students In Tanzania

A school bus full of students swerved off a steep road in Tanzania on Saturday morning and fell into a ravine, killing 36 people — 33 of them children, authorities said.

The fatal crash happened in city of Arusha in Tanzania’s northern Karatu District, on the edge of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

“The place where it happened is a hill, with a steep slope, and it was raining when the accident happened,” Aruba Police Commander Charles Mkumbo said.

Mkumbo added investigators were still trying to determine exactly what caused the bus to leave the road.

“We don’t know if the driver was new or if there was a mechanical defect,” he said.

CNN reported that the bus driver and two teachers on board, were also killed in the crash. Two of the students survived but were critically injured.The primary school students, aged between 12 and 13 years old, were on their way to another school to take an exam.
Tanzanian President John Magufuli expressed “great shock and sadness” over the crash.

“The accident has cut short the dreams of students who were preparing to serve the nation,” Magufuli said.

More than 3,000 people are killed each year on Tanzania’s roads, according to government data. Driving on the road can be dangerous anywhere though as there are fatalities around the world every year. Even on buses which most people see to be a safe mode of transport. Accidents don’t always lead to death as sometimes people are simply injured and some lucky people are left unharmed. If you live in America then the likelihood of getting into an accident is reduced due to fact that the roads are in better condition. If you have ever been involved in an accident with a bus then you may be able to seek compensation if you get a personal injury attorney. An attorney can help you with your case. When it comes to road accidents, the safety of the victims is the top priority. With that being said, it is also important to understand your rights in a situation like this, especially if you’re looking to go down the legal route.

Hopefully, you will never get into an accident like these unfortunate children who were tragically lost in this accident.

It is hoped that the police will be able to get to the bottom of who’s at fault for the accident and the families have that relief. Whether it would be an accident with a semi or any other vehicle, people want and need closure to help them move on from such tragedy. Many people are wanting the government to improve the roads in this area to help stop this from happening again.
