‘Most accidents attributed to human error, speeding’

THE newly-refurbished Plumtree-Mutare Highway has become Zimbabwe’s deadliest road, with Wednesday’s Rusape bus disaster, which claimed 50 lives being one of the many fatalities along the road.

To motorists who ply the highway, speeding public transport drivers from the Yutong and Zhitong buses is no longer news, especially between Harare and Mutare.

The mini-buses have become popular for their speed and are known for “overtaking even the Mercedes Benz models”.
