Last month two Zimbabwe United Passenger Company (ZUPCO) buses were involved in separate accidents resulting in the death of 7 people, with 27 left injured. In one of the accidents, a ZUPCO bus side-swiped with a Honda Fit near Kwekwe before ramming into two parked kombis resulting in the death of 7 people on the 10th.
