The bus reversed on the highway, the passengers rebelled!

After the bus disaster in Manisa, in which 11 people lost their lives, a similar dangerous action took place in Bursa this time. The driver of the passenger bus traveling between Bursa and Gebze started to reverse on the highway when he turned in the wrong direction. Although the passengers reacted by saying "You are endangering our lives", the driver continued his maneuver and argued with the citizens who warned him. The moments when the driver tried to convince the passengers by saying "We are human, we just missed it" were caught on camera

The incident took place around 06:00 on the Bursa ring road. According to the information obtained, the driver of the passenger bus making the Bursa-Gebze trip, while he was supposed to leave the Istanbul exit, turned towards Izmir as a result of absent-mindedness.

According to IHA, the driver realized that he had entered the wrong direction and started reversing on the highway instead of reaching the exit. Passengers on the bus reacted to the maneuver that could pose a fatal risk and warned the driver.

An argument broke out between the passengers and the driver, who said "You are endangering our lives." The moments when the driver, who was seen reversing despite the warnings, responded to the citizens who reacted to him by saying "We are human, we missed it" and tried to convince the passengers were captured on his mobile phone camera.

11 PEOPLE LOST THEIR LIVES IN MANİSA

The incident in Bursa brought to the agenda again the bus disaster that took place in Akhisar district of Manisa on October 11, which shocked Türkiye. The tour bus, which set out from Bursa to Denizli, made a reverse maneuver when it missed the Akhisar toll booth, and in the meantime, 11 people died and 27 people were injured in the accident that occurred as a result of being hit by a truck coming from behind. After the accident, bus and truck drivers were arrested.

While the pain of the disaster in Manisa remains in memory, the occurrence of a similar dangerous maneuver in Bursa once again raised concerns about the life safety of passengers.

Emirhan Kabanlı (23), who was injured by a shotgun fired by his tradesman neighbor Hakkıhan G. (43), at his workplace in Erzurum, died in the hospital where he was taken. While the moment of the incident was reflected on the security camera of the workplace, Hakan G., who allegedly shot Kabanlı during a joke, was taken into custody. (DHA)
