This happened on 3rd mainland bridge around 12:05pm.
.
According to the bus driver his car was not firing well so he parked brought out his spare tyre and engine cover as caution sign for in coming vehicles.

He checked his engine returned to start the bus all he had was a heavy bang behind his bus.

The okada rider and his passenger hit the caution placed, flew with their bike to the open boot of the bus.

One now with heavy cut on head and the other heavy cut on face.

Both are still alive but have lost too much blood.

The ambulance came about 20 minutes after the incident.

IF THE WHISTLE BLOWER REFUSES TO TELL US THE NAME OF THE OWNER OF THE MONEY, HE SHUD BE ARRESTED AS THE OWNER



UNLESS HE HAS TOLD THE EFCC BUT THE ARE HIDING IT FOR SOME REASON



IF AN AGENCY LIKE EFCC CANNOT INVESTIGATE AND PROVIDE THE NAME OF THE OWNER OF AN APARTMENT THEN EFCC SHOULD BE SCRAPPED COS ITS USELESS.....


AGENT IS JUST A MIDDLEMAN, ABI THE LANDLORD NOR WRITE RECEIPT GIVE THE TENANT....


WHO IS DECEIVING WHO?


EFCC IS USELESS AND THEY HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED SINCE TIME IMMEMORIAL




ITS TIME WE START THINKING WITH OUR BRAINS AND NOT OUR FINGERS, BECAUSE THE URGE TO REACT/COMMENT INSTEAD OF THINKING IS BECOMING ALARMING

na the only thing u have to post imagine I going thru almost all the posts and this is the writing I see. Please spare my eyes

Bros no vex o but did you read the story at all?

....."According to the bus driver his car was not firing well so he parked brought out his spare tyre and engine cover as caution sign for in coming vehicles".

That is the statement on that story or news.

It thus means, he didn't have a CAUTION SIGN.

Also, look at the POSTERIOR view of those pictures, there is at least 1 to 2 metre space between the edge of the bridge rail and the bus. I can posit that the impact on the bus could not have shifted the bus because it was stationary.

In the same vein, if the bus had stopped around RRS and park, it wouldn't have been an issue. Since the RRS is stationed on both sides of the bridge at a portion known as layby.

Any stopping on the bridge other than on the layby, requires a bright light SIGN to alert oncoming motorists of danger and not one dark colour tyre. In addition, such driver must ensure the car is totally off the road, that is not the case here.

OKADA riders are extremely terrible but the driver has some faults.

Please, I also encourage you to read the story again. The Okada rider hit the CAUTION. Right! What did the driver used as CAUTION? His tyre and his engine cover! Is that what the law recommends as CAUTION SiGN? He is liable!

1) Based on personal experiences, okara riders mostly ride with no regard for life or limb. And the passengers usually sit back there all smug mostly.

2) They were not riding with protective gear.

3) Allegedly, there was a safety warning sign.

Poor bike.

Lawless morons! They should be left to die!

Okada has been banned on that bridge for safety reasons but these morons will not listen. As for me "let them die".

It's more about what they can do bout the situation

Not everyone has the basic idea when it comes to first aid treatment when faced with victims of an incident

One of the reasons why Okada should be banned on major highways.
