Multiple People Killed After Bus Plunged from Highway Bridge
Colombia. A bus overturned while traveling down the La Línea highway and crashed into a barrier on the bridge, ejecting the passengers, who fell approximately 30 meters. Authorities, emergency services, and others are currently addressing the situation and have yet to release an official death toll, although the first unofficial figure released is that around 11 passengers lost their lives. The bus was carrying 26 people: 23 students and 3 teachers. The students were on a teaching visit to the Faculty of Engineering at Humboldt University in Armenia. The students were learning details about the infrastructure of the La Línea highway. The accident, according to national media, occurred as the university students were already returning. According to authorities, the accident was caused by a mechanical failure on the bus, which caused the driver to lose control of the vehicle. "What the driver told us is that the vehicle suffered mechanical failure. It appears it lost its brakes, and on the bridge, it lost control, hit the railings, and some students were ejected," police reported. |

in one part of what I could translate, the narrator revealed why busses often smell like pee. Its due to people peeing in them.

I still don’t understand how this happened. Did the bus hit the guard rail so hard that people flew out? How fucking fast was it going to be able to do that? I dont like it. I’ll bet what really happened was |

I think she survived. I'm assuming that's her I guess I could've looked at the second pic you posted. Looks like the dude died? |
