The investigation of the tragic buss accident on Struma motorway, which claimed 45 lives, has been almost completed, Bulgaria’s Deputy Prosecutor General Borislav Sarafov said for the BNT.
"The bus was literally pierced by the road safety barriers. There are two types of speed limits – maximum speed and speed pertaining to the traffic and atmospheric conditions. The bus was travelling at more than 90 km / h. Professional bus drivers have to meet higher requirements as compared to other drivers. "The road markings do not meet the requirements, but there is no causal link between the road accident and poor road markings",. Borislav Sarafov said.
