    MEXICO CITY At least seven people were killed and 21 injured when a bus came off the road in northwest Mexico on Sunday, local authorities said.


    The driver of the bus, which had been traveling from Oaxaca state on its way to Tijuana on the U.S. border, lost control of the vehicle which had a punctured tire, a spokesman for the emergency services in Nayarit state said.

    Ouch, harsh news... :( At the same time those pictures are unrelated to the news in itself. Many times drivers spend too many hours driving and being tired can cause an accident.

    That's true. Some drivers have to be on the road for like a day with almost no break, let alone a break for sleep.

    That is why there are legal limits to drive consecutively, at the same time these limits are many times neglected because people just want to make more money working...

    Some companies that work with long-distance trips tend to change drivers along the road.

    That is correct and I think it's the wisest thing to do because many times to save some money we might end up risking our life and that is definitely not worth it.

    Absolutely agree. That should be adopted as a general rule for all the transportation companies.

    I think that in most countries there is legislation in this sense, the issue is that is hard to enforce it because there is no control. Are there records to control how many hours each driver drove?
