"They panicked and cried": Documenting violence on the road against a bus full of children

A bus carrying students descended to the side of a highway following a driver of a car that deviated from its route - and then reacted violently to the bus that beeped to warn it, as it tried to break its sights and even deliberately drove backwards and collided with it.

"It was a very difficult experience"

In the video: Violence on the road against a bus full of children and the driver (green light)

A violent incident on the roads was documented about a week ago in the Glilot Junction area, when a bus carrying students from a regional school from Moshav Sharon got off the side of a highway following a driver of a car that deviated from its lane and then reacted violently to the bus carrying the children.

"I was on my way back from a school trip with a bus full of fifth graders," Muhammad, the bus driver, said of the incident. "In a traffic jam at Glilot Junction, we drove at a low speed and then a vehicle veered off to the right and entered my lane, causing me to deviate I blew him a long siren and it really annoyed him. He blocked my lane, got out of the car and started knocking on the bus door. When he failed, he tried to break the mirrors. I did not get off and did not open the doors and then when I thought it was all over - he got in the car , Drove back violently, hit the bus and ran away. The children were very scared and we panicked. Some cried and we had to stop for a long time at the stop in Cinema City in the Galilee, to calm them down. The children had a very difficult experience. I immediately reported to the police Something similar in the future. " As can be seen in the documentation held by Walla! The driver of the private car drove backwards and hit the bus with the children.

Erez Kita, CEO of the Green Light Association: "The ease with which violence in Israeli society flows down the road is inconceivable and especially unbearable.

In broad daylight on a main road, a driver is not afraid to collide with a bus full of children and drive violently towards the driver.

Education and driving culture are things that take time to assimilate, but there is no substitute for a police presence on the roads, one that will deter and make anyone on the road afraid of resorting to violence or bullying against another driver.

The traffic police lack 200 vehicles that could have increased deterrence on the road and prevented such cases of violence. "

A study by the Dutch Road Safety Research Institute SWOV, examined and found that there is a strong link between anger and aggressive and aggressive behavior on the road.

This refers to behavior that may cause physical or mental harm to the user and behavior that contains violence and deviations from moral rules.

There are several reasons for aggressive behavior on the road: Many drivers are on the road while being accompanied by a feeling of anger and nervousness from incidents that occur before or during driving.

These feelings endanger the driver's presence on the road and make him more aggressive and impulsive.

Another reason for the danger is the road conditions.

Common situations include traffic jams, red light delays and offenses committed by others that cause traffic delays.

All of these and others make the driver feel nervous, angry and furious, which increases his chances of being involved in a car accident significantly.
