From the story since it lost the brake near the temple was the lorry at the emergency ramp? Why didnt thr driver aim for the emergency ramp?

maybe the lorry was not stationary. the lorry was slowing down (which is normal for a road like that), but the bus had lost it brakes and lost control, and the driver tried to avoid banging in to the lorry.

wow..in the papers saying if not for the dense forest, that bus would have plunged 150meters..where would t have ended up?

Genting got all the money since they opened. Should really consider constructing another safer road up and down no matter what the cost. This tragedy alone will definitely scare off some tourist now.

If you read the story from the survivor it shows the bus wasnt taken care properly hence lose the brake. And from the condition higher probability the bus condition say it all

Bus is blacklisted on JPJ but how come JPJ still allow the bus to operate?

for ur infomation the most visible light of ur car is not hazard light but ur brake light.

red color light had longest viewable range that why all the high tower/building used red light on top of building to aware pilot!!!!

so during raining/fogy day turn on ur car light so driver behind can see ur brake light. make sure all 3 light function all the time!

and dont stupid to change ur brake light to blue white etc which is useless when had low visiblelity.
