Buses can become difficult to maneuver in emergency situations, preventing bus drivers from turning or stopping suddenly due to the weight of their vehicles and passengers. Even without many passengers or large trailers, buses are heavy, making accidents involving them inherently dangerous. Additionally, bus drivers can be under high amounts of pressure to spend long hours on the road, needing to meet transportation deadlines. This can lead to exhaustion and impaired judgment while they drive, especially towards the end of their routes. Tired drivers are more likely to make mistakes when driving, increasing the likelihood of accidents. A recent news article discussed a serious bus accident.
