Let's be factual here, Peace mass drivers are reckless drivers, always overspeeding whenever you come across them. The don't have competent drivers.

The owner of the company is economical with the truth. All the occupants of that bus, PMT 1259 perished in that crash. The driver of bus is known as SAY BABA. The drivers of pmt are well experienced because before a driver can ply the highways, he most have plied the local routes for some years before the company will permit him to ply the highways. Just that some of the accidents are misterous to some of us who has worked with the company before. This world is full of mystery and most rich men belong to some organization in order to sustain their wealth.
pardon.
how did you know about the numbers of casualties and the bus serial number

True.

Accidents happen everyday involving vehicles. I don't understand why people like to amplify any accident that involves peace mass.

For four years, I used peace mass to and from Enugu state as a university student. No issues.

All my travels around the country are through peace. I just don't understand.

These days, they have even installed speed limiters on their vehicles. Drivers can no longer go above 100km/h.

Last time at their park, I noticed all the buses had Michelin tires. The management is really trying to curb these accidents.

I also used them all through my stay in the East without any issue and I travelled every day or every other day. Not even a near accident.

Those who vow never to use PMT have never stayed in the East. Except you're ready to stay at the park all day waiting for your bus to get filled, there's really no other choice apart from PMT

Each time I see passengers inside peace mass, I use to see them as those that are tired of their lives. I rather trek to Abuja than enter peace mass

It is high time the management of PMT, put a check on this.
I have used their transport and what I can say is that most of their drivers are reckless.
They should invest in training their drivers instead of buying more buses.

Not to spoil anybody's business but it has to be said. PMT needs to inspect their vehicles (and drivers) before each journey.
One time, a PMT bus took us from Enugu to Ph with a bad tire (not flat, bent!) that was wobbly. Didn't notice until we got to Ph and someone in another car pointed it out. I came down to check out the stuff and it was terrible. + from the driver's reaction, he knew all along.
Another time, a rickety PMT bus I boarded sort of caught fire somewhere close to Enugu town, there was just one rather inefficient extinguisher. We abandoned our goods in the booth and ran for our dear lives!
Life is too precious to be wasted through such recklessness.

This is a sponsored attack on pmt

Why was GUO not mentioned

How many people died from GUO bus?

Nobody is talking about our roads
Travel from onitsha to Enugu and u will know life is hard on that road.

Pmt speed limit is 100km/hr


That's probably because GUO isn't as popular as PMT. Also, PMT has quite a well-publicized history of disturbing accidents behind it.

Peace mass is known for high speed.
Best transportation company to use is GIGM ( God is Good Motor). Speed limit is 100/110.

But most causes of road Accident is bad road and high speed.

But with careful driving and not too high speed limit , the driver can be able to control the vehicle.

RIp to the dead.

God will continue to lead us throughout this festive period. Amen.

zombie spotted... Was it a false information? At least 4 dead also means it could be 18. Have you verified the claims the PMT posted before you start running your mouth as tap? The social media is what brought out the information in the first place.

That's only your choice. There are more than 100 choices better than PMT.

I stay in the East and i ply the road every three weeks. PMT is a no no to me. That's my choice.

So don't generalise it.

Dude you are smarter than this. Accidents happen quite frequently in Nigeria but the transporters are never named. It's only because peace mass has grown so much that's why their accidents become headlines. Do you know the number of peace buses that run everyday? Hundreds, probably thousands. How frequently do they get accidents? Not very frequently if you compare it the thousands of kilometers they cover compared to others.

Air crashes get more coverage than road accidents even when we know that more far more people die on the road than on the air.

It's the same reason Dangote trucks get more coverage than other trucks when they are involved in accidents.

Peace mass accidents are being measured against the rest of the transporters combined so you think their accidents rates are higher.

We know planes are safer than other means of transport because of the measure of flier miles per fatality. Peace mass probably has more kilometers per fatality than any other transporter because of the number of their buses. It is just bad belle that make people to say nonsense. There is no transporter that you can say is empirically safer than peace. None.

I spent time typing this because I know you are smarter than most people here.

Can you give just one example of this other choice that plies Nnewi to port Harcourt or Afikpo to Enugu that has enough passengers. I mean, one where I don't have to wait hours at the park for the bus to get filled.

I once made terrible mistake on a trip from Abakaliki to Onitsha when I went to another park. I eventually lost the tfare I paid to them when the bus would not get filled after hours at the park and went to PMT.

In three weeks that you get to travel once, I would have travelled over 15 times so you are talking with someone who knows what he's saying

I think the people that amplify accidents involving peace have an agenda.

Otherwise, how do you explain the fact this particular accident was between a peace bus and a GUO bus but only peace is being dragged..

Ahhh... So, you posted the initial false info...

Accidents happen a lot on our high ways, with casualties... You don't just rush out to claim 18 people died (almost all passengers), without proper investigation and prime evidence. Do you know how sensitive such news is, or how insensitive the act of doing such is??! That is a real CRIME in other countries.

Let me ignore your first line... It's really not your fault you can't be decorous in responding to contrary comments. It's probably your upbringing.

Over 10,000??!... At what killing rate? How many passengers per week??!... And, they still have customers...

I know PMT has been involved in quite a number of road mishaps and carnage in the last few years, but come on now. Haba!!! Small small na.

Very good point as well. And like someone mentioned, they probably have the most buses across the nation. It's expected that they'll have more accidents

No speed limits ( There was a thread a few weeks ago where idiots were boasting of speeding 140km/HR on Nigeria's deadly roads) it even made front page..

No regulated well established driving schools..

Zero road laws, bad roads, drunk/ impatient drivers, rickety vehicles..

Feel free to add more, if we don't fix the above, be prepared for more accidents and more deaths, no amount of prayer will save us..

Most people just move cars in Nigeria, they don't actually know how to handle or drive a vehicle..The ones that travel out realise it once the get to a civilized country and have to pass a test..
