jerry921 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Seems like a tough week for tour buses. Is this the second or third one this week? Or maybe it was a second one this week and a third one last week, I'm losing track. They all run together after a while. So to speak. Was this one full of Chinese tourists?

It is a company catering to Chinese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pagallim Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Some more photos. Apparently happened around 0930 this morning, but can't get an exact location yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerry921 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I guess it's just two crashes, this one in Kathu with plate 30-6451 and one on Patong hill with license plate 31-0687 that has shown up in more than one thread. That's still two too many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psimbo Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I recognise the markings- this company's buses have a habit of driving dangerously, one tried to cut me up the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you may well be right eezer, especially if the bus I passed going up Patong Hill yesterday was anything to go by, because it was struggling like you wouldn't believe and I could have walked faster. Not only that although it looked bright and shiny on the outside, a closer look showed it to be an old bus with a repaint job, and I hate to think what the brakes and mechanicals on it were like........... I thought there and then that this would be another candidate for a downhill catastrophe here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
