The eyewitness blamed the driver of the bus he was travelling in for reckless driving, adding that the accident could have been avoided if the driver had heeded several warnings from passengers.

He stated that both drivers lost control of their vehicles, leading to a head-on collision adding that the Siena bus skidded off the road and somersaulted many times, killing so many people in the process.
