That bus was a prime example of Typical Japanese Engineering operated by a race of barbaric baboons. Not surprised at all.

I like the civilness of discussion here when the accident happened in Japan. If this happened in China the comments would be full of trolls.

I think you're ignoring all of the variabilities. For one, as it was said and sourced, the driver in question was forced to take a second shift on top of an already long shift; in addition to that, the poor conditions of the road and especially the flawed design of the wall are in inherit question. It's entirely possible this was the companies fault for forcing a second shift on the man who, in addition to having a long shift already, was likely horrendously tired. This isn't America, where you can take naps inbetween vehicular drives; it was his last shift of the day, and he was tired as all hell by that point, to the degree that his eyes were likely pratically shutting down on their own. The driver may not be as much at fault as you think. I'm not saying he is entirely blameless -- indeed, he may not be -- but for now, all sources indicate the company is the one's at fault.

@λ-chan

Was responding to the false myth that women were worse drivers. Said nothing about the rates of accidents between countries.

lol. You think Japanese public transportation is cheap? You need to travel more. Japan's one the more expensive side, even for a developed country.

>there is a certain amount of concern about the safety of Japan’s roads of late.
Which is uncalled for since there is actually a lull in road deaths in Japan. It's now at about the same level as Europe or America but sixty years ago it was a lot worse.
No sense in panicking just because some immoral boss forced a weak-willed or penniless underling to sleep-drive.
I predict the company will escape all charges, while the driver will be forced to voluntarily resign and then maybe get thrown in the slammer for a while.

If this was in China, all the weeabos would be questioning the integrity of the bus. LOL Japan makes horribly unsafe cars.

Yup, typical Japanese society to blame the bus driver for negligence or man slaughter. No! It couldn't possibly be the company's fault for forcing him to take that extra shift. I saw this on TV yesterday. According to the NHK reporter, the bus driver was forced to take the second shift because no one was available, despite his already long shift. It's funny because my wife and I both predicted that they would blame the bus driver and not the company. You just wait, we also predict that the bus driver's family will have to pay for the damages and money to the victim's family.
