Public demand action against unruly bus drivers

The passengers of two private buses here had a providential escape when the two vehicles had brushed against each other this morning.



When the buses were on their way to Ramanathapurm from Sungam, one tried to overtake the other.

That resulted in a minor accident near Olympus bus stop. As there was hardly any passenger at the bus stop, a major incident was averted. Still a woman passenger suffered an injury.



The police took the drivers of both the buses to the police station for an inquiry.

According to the people residing in the area, such overtaking and competition with impunity by the private buses has been a routine here but the law and order authorities wink at it.
