Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 37302, member: 636"] Six people died when a bus flipped over near Gweru early Wednesday morning. The Hungwe Coaches bus traveled from Francistown, Botswana, toward Harare when it crashed close to Fairmile Hotel. Five adults and one baby lost their lives in the accident. Gweru Police Chief Leon Marongedza said the driver lost control going around a traffic circle. Police teams currently examine the crash site to find what caused it. Officials consider driver mistakes, vehicle problems, or road issues possible causes for the deadly rollover. The crash started new talks about making traffic circles safer on major highways used by long-distance buses. Safety groups asked for better driver training and road improvements after this disaster. Hungwe Coaches runs many cross-border routes but has not made any public statement about the accident. This crash stands as one of the worst road disasters in Zimbabwe's Midlands area this year.
