Phuket tour bus slams into motorists, shophouse; 'brake failure' cited, again

[lucjoker]

Driving to fast thus overusing the brakes causes them to overheat and temporarily fail.

Dont bother what was the cause ,

just never or never take a bus,taxi,......you play with your life !

Of course if you dont have a motorcycle or car.....then play with your life or

buy a vehicle and drive yourself.

No buts ,only if you are a cheap charly .

You're potentially playing with your life even if you use your own vehicle. What allowances do you make for the bus that has failed brakes that is heading directly to you? You're own car isn't going to help you then any more than any other vehicle.

But maybe you are right, only cheap "charly" types get involved in accidents.
