Minibus accident

Last Sunday an accident occurred in eastern South Africa a minibus was on its way to church, but sadly it never made its destination. Due to the fact that the minibus was over crowded than usual with passengers. The mini bus rolled down a very deep hill and sadly 19 passengers were killed, and 7 passengers were injured and were being taken care of in the hospital. The article stated that the minibus was actually carrying ten more people than it was allowed to.  Investigations were being made and they came with a theory that the brakes were not working. This event was very upsetting to read and I cant imagine what the victims families are going through. This could have been avoided if they were provided with better transportation and safer conditions. Its very sad to hear that these poor victims were risking their life's just to get a ride to church, which I think was very brave of them to do so.
