18 students escape as school bus driver suffers seizure in Medak

Eighteen students had a narrow escape in Telangana's Medak district after a school bus driver allegedly suffered a seizure and lost control of the vehicle in Narsapur town. The bus hit a parked auto and three motorcycles before being stopped by the driver's assistant.

Medak: Eighteen school students, who were on their way back home in the school bus, had a miraculous escape after the driver of the bus suffered a seizure in the middle of the road in Narsapur town on Saturday evening. When he could not hold the steering wheel and almost fell unconscious, the speeding bus veered off the road, hit a parked auto and ran over three bikes parked by the roadside. As one of the bikes came under the tyres of the bus, it came to a halt when the driver’s assistant responded quickly and stopped the bus.

The incident left the 18 students on board in shock. However, they escaped with minor injuries. The parents accused the management of Sri Vastsal Gurukul School of employing the driver Prabhakar, who allegedly suffered from a serious health condition. They demanded action against the management for its alleged negligence. The driver and injured students were rushed to the government hospital in Narsapur for treatment.
