Was sitting on the other side, when the bus hit

Then the driver of the first double-decker in front of the canteen of UPEDA did not park the bus in the parking lot and parked it on the side of the highway. Due to this, the second speeding Volvo bus coming from behind rammed into it uncontrollably. The passengers of the bus which came from behind were killed and injured as the passengers of the bus which were already parked had gone to the canteen.
