A wedding party traveling on a tourist bus in Kerala suffered a fatal accident when the vehicle overturned after swerving to avoid a scooter. Thirty people were injured, with four sustaining serious injuries, after the incident near Kakkoor in Koothattukulam, Ernakulam district. The bus was en route from Kalady to Elanji when the accident occurred.
Preliminary reports suggest a scooter traveling on the left side of the bus suddenly veered towards the right, prompting the driver to make a sharp turn to avoid a collision. The subsequent loss of traction, compounded by wet road conditions, caused the bus to skid, overturn, and strike the scooter, which was hit by the rear section of the bus.
Despite the bus narrowly missing another petrol pump, it stopped short of a more severe impact. The incident was captured on CCTV, providing crucial evidence for investigators to reconstruct the events leading up to the accident.
