IST LINK CHANGE: Updated casualties figures
This newsblog is known for reporting deadly...and largely ignored...bus crashes... especially in Latin America.
Why? Because the blog's editor prefers to travel by bus there.
But deadly bus accidents also occur in Europe.
In Portugal...a bus loaded with seniors...was travelling in heavy rain from Badajoz to Santa Maria da Feira...when it plunged into a ravine near Serta...killing 11...and injuring 32.
