Kolkata: 11 injured when the bus hits Maa Flyover pillar

Kolkata: Eleven passengers have a narrow escape after their personal bus traveled by crashing into one of the Maa Flyover pillars.
All 11 lucky out alive with injury, a little minor and some severe.
The incident occurred at around 8:30 a.m.
on Wednesday near the Park Circus connector close to BiFurcation Maa Flyover, opposite the covid safe home.
One passenger received stitches, while two other people were injured on their faces.
The rest suffer minor injuries.
The driver and conductor of the bus – plying on the KB 21 route between Ganganagar and Bantala – escaped after the accident.
This is the third bus accident within a few days, which leads to one death and 14 injuries.
The police said they had conducted a forensic examination to find out how the accident occurred after the bus drove to the pillar 33.
“The passengers we talked to said the bus at high speed but did not compete with other buses.
It seems that the front tire left from the bus exploded because of speeding and driver losing control.
Instead of slamming another vehicle, he turned right and hit the pillar.
The front driver side has taken the maximum impact.
Thus, we have asked forensic experts to give us their opinions, “said an officer from Pragati Maidan Police .
Tiljala traffic guards who helped save the passengers said it was important to ensure the condition of the tire exploded, along with vehicle brakes.
“We need to know whether the bus is suitable to be on the road.
The mechanical test will be done.
The question is about the condition of the bus, rather than whether it is racing or not,” said an officer.
Kmd official said it didn’t seem to suggest that the pier had been damaged.
“Whatever internal structural damage has occurred or cannot be detected only after the test,” said an official.
Officials suggested to minimize the impact of such accidents on the flyover pier, the authorities must establish a median divider with degrees to reduce speed.
