So sad but the major factor is Ratsa and police including the council plus RDA they don't work together just to make sure road users are safe . Police and ratsa their interest is sucking money from road users . You know road signs road markings are very useful to us motorists but look at lusaka and most of our roads they are not marked and if so fake paints which don't reflect on the road is being used . Standard and quality has been overlooked in zambia . They are just looking at sucking it sacks anyway very pathetic driving around lusaka and off lusaka .

This is a very sad & unfortunate development. However, I wasn't aware that buses were permitted to leave the bus station at that hour🙆‍♀️

Conbination of bad roads and drivers who never did have proper lessons.

RATSA should come up with a system that should help to curb the road carnage that is so prevalent on our roads. These bus drivers over speed. Sometimes RATSA officers should disguise themselves and board on some of our buses, then they will understand the dangerous and recklessness of some drivers. Especially UBZ.
