- Was the bus overspending?
- Was there a delayed reaction time by the bus driver?
- Was there miscommunication or confusion between both drivers?
- Was the car driver possibly in a rush to reach school on time?

Aftermath and Reflection:
This tragic incident has led to the irreparable loss of valuable lives. A school has lost its dedicated teachers, families have lost their loved ones -a sister, a daughter, a father. For the children, it’s a loss beyond words. A teacher is a guiding light in a student’s life- a symbol of wisdom and discipline -yet today, due to negligence or a lapse on the road, such a noble life has been cut short.
