Recommendation for Genting Highland accident

In this Genting bus crash case, there are several recommendations that we want to point out in preventing or reducing the frequency and severity of bus accidents at Genting Highlands in the future. The government should upgrade the safety of Genting Highlands road. Including signboard, lighten up the side of the road, adding up the road yellow bar especially at accidents area, improving the safety area beside only using the rubber wall and guard rails and reconstruct the widen of the road. The drivers must have a self awareness and high responsibility on the passenger safety. The driver is prohibited from taking any drugs or alcohol before or while driving. The driver also must have a good attitude towards the passenger, high patient and have an enough sleep before the journey. The most important is the driver must follow the Road Traffic Act while driving.

The company of the bus should take a safety precaution which are every each bus must undergo a service maintenance every 3 month, should hire an experience bus driver at least 2 years experience and have no any bad records on traffic. Last but not least, the passenger should play a role by choosing a good bus company which have a good reputation have no bad history of any accidents.

CONCLUSION

It was the worst bus crash accidents in Malaysia that have occurred in the past of ten years. This bus crash accident take about a week to fully recovered and cleared the road to open and use the road to the public to go to the Genting Highlands. It takes too long for it to fully recover because the parties or department that should be responsible for this accident does not prepared any contingency plan for this type of accidents. The bus plunged into a 60 metres ravine, which was the major reason why parties have to take more time to fully recover it.

Even though the frequency of bus accidents is low, every time the bus crash accidents happened at the Genting Highland roads, the severity must be high because the agency that must be responsible did not take any early precaution ways to overcome this problem. After the latest Genting bus crash had happened and take a big number of live, then only all the agency have open their eyes and take as much ways to try to overcome this accidents to happen again.

In a nut shell, all individuals and parties such as government, Bus Company, passenger, driver bus and many more, should contribute in each angle in a way for help to reduce or prevent such accidents from happen again in the future. Every party should know their own responsibilities to faces this type of accidents in the future. They must have their own contingency planning for every type of accidents so that, they will take less time to settled the case accidents.
