*Govt Mulling Radical Measures To Reduce Road Accidents: Transport Minister* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?ut The government is mulling radical measures to deal with road accidents which have claimed a lot of lives in the past few weeks. The latest accident (Brooklyn Bus Disaster) involved a bus en route to Musina after a suspected gas leak caused a fire which resulted in the death of 32 people. The Minister for Transport and Infrastructural Development Minister Joel Biggie Matiza said > As Government, we are taking up steps to stop this carnage on our roads. We are going to meet as an inter-ministerial committee on disaster management led by Minister of Local Government, Public Works and National Housing (July Moyo) and all stakeholders involved to see that we deal with this issue in terms of, among other things, enforcement, education and technology. > These are some of the things we are going to start applying and we are taking it seriously because the number of deaths that are coming out of our roads is increasing by the day. This is mainly due to negligence, not abiding by the law and laxity in enforcement. > We are going to address this in a short time to come and will announce the raft of measures that we want to take. These will be radical because we cannot keep on having people dying on our roads. *Related:* *47 Dead In Rusape Bus Accident* *32 Confirmed Dead, 27 Injured, With Scores Unaccounted For In West Nicholson Accident* *More: Herald* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
