Near Death Experience On Bangladesh's Worst Bus 🇧🇩
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- As much as we did not want to, we had no choice but to take an overnight bus from Dhaka to Cox's Bazar.
After many a rough journey, this was the one that finally went wrong. Luckily, we survived unhurt, but we had no idea who or what we hit and if they were okay afterwards.
If you travel around Asia, avoid long-distance buses at all costs; it is never worth gambling with your life.

I can give you little inside why the driver didn't stop even after that incident. Becuase robbery happens in night in few place. Sometime robbers try to stop bus by putting blockers or other stuff so that bus drvier slow down and they can get in to rob everyone. And the incident that happened with your bus seems like the case. Because if they had actually smashed other vehicles , the other vehicle owner should have called the p0lice right away. Since they didn't bother to call the police, you can be sure this was a trap. This is probably the main reason I can think of why they didn't stop. I don't think sleeping cause the issue, there is a second incharge who sits next to the driver, if that happened, he should have caught earlier. But I do agree on the fact, that they should have checked with all to see everyone is ok .
i guessed same. i have experience riding and they wud not stop the bus unless there are proper stops like resting restaurants..
Also keep in mind, majority in this country don't speak English. Many knows only basic words and sentence. As a result many prefer to avoid a long discussion with foreigners. With that limited knowledge of English I don't think they will ever try to explain the actual situation. This could be another reason why they haven't explained you anthing. I know its frustating but language barrier is really a big issue in this country. Take the train ride back to dhaka. Wish you best luck and looking forward for next video. Keep smiling.
Wow, that's really something horrible. If that's the case, the driver is also a victim. But the bus company just doesn't care.
He doesn't know this and he's spitting bad word from his mouth!
Guy’s thanks to god, you guys are ok and didn’t lose your phone camera and all the other stuff 🙏 if the driver stopped on that spot you gonna be robbed and you couldn’t complete your video too🙄. Imagine you guys was seating on back and feels cold but the driver drove the bus without window and who knows the broken window glasses damage his face or body, thanks to the driver for his bravely driving his bus till to the safe destination🙏. And nots if you are foreigner do not use public transport any 3rd world countries 🙏🙏🙏 for your safety reason👍👍👍
Bus driver saved you. There were robber who would rob the whole bus and take everything.
This is not a logical explanation. He should call police for help.
@@salmanshafin7291 Are you Bangladeshi? Don't you know what robbers do when they loot a bus? And if they somehow have information about 2 foreigners traveling in this bus they will definitely kill some people . The situation on the highway is not fully under control of the police team.
@@salmanshafin7291 i think It's time for you to leave bangladesh you mo^ron
@@MdMazharulIslamOvieI agree with you dude. The same thing happened with me and my family when we were travelling but thanks to the almighty Allah that we were safe.
@salmanshafin7291 Are you dump 🤣
Do you remember when you were in China, your bus stopped at the service area for a few hours? That's because China's highways prohibit buses from driving on highways from 2am to 5am to avoid accidents caused by driver fatigue. Although you may be disturbed by snorers and unable to sleep, but I think it's better than risking your life.
True
So they should stay in china forever?🙄
Yea, they never mention again
Miss that snoring guy
China is a different league all together.
I'm from Bangladesh, but living in Europe for half of my life. This is one of the main reasons that stops me from visiting BD with my kids and wife. We just don't know if we will come back alive or uninjured. Bangladeshi roads are death traps. There are a few reasons for the bus or any driver not to stop. If they do, there is a risk of the bus or car getting mobbed and burnt. This is also the negative side of our culture that in a situation like this, people focus on destruction rather than the safety of the affected. This is why no bus/car driver would ever stop after any accident until they find a safe shelter no matter what. The attitude of the bus counter staff members was absolutely shameful! Glad that you both are safe and hope this does not take away any positive experience that you have in Bangladesh. Scottish and Irish are my favorite people in Europe. Thanks for visiting BD.
😂😂even the strongest atheist becomes a believer in God by taking a bus in Bangladesh 😂😂

Yes😂😂😂
The problem maybe if they have stopped there at the road the bus could be attacked by robbers. Robbing at the highways are a big problem here. The road and transport and health care sector here is shitty. What to do!
I think the situation could have been made better if the staff explained this, not one person spoke the full hour driving back to the bus station….
We should have also checked that the people we hit were okay
Exactly. Driver was probably scared of a public beating too.
@@Alan_and_Shannon language barrier mate i feel your worries
@@Alan_and_Shannon The local people probably understand the situation and that’s probably why they didn’t question the driver’s decision not to stop. Glad you made it to your destination without harm. Stay safe.
Maybe it was the highwayman he hit.@@Alan_and_Shannon
They actually took the responsibility to make sure you reach to your destination. Well what happened there is , green line has the most number of luxury buses. You took the economy bus . That's why they actually needed time to arrange replacement bus from the depot.
The reason anyone was not complaining is that , they actually think that accidents are the things that might happen any time randomly. Even after the accident they managed to drive it and reach the nearest station where you can have a bit of rest until the replacement arrives .
Just imagine spending night in middle of nowhere at midnight . Is it safe ? or the driver taking responsibility of each passenger on board and driving the bus to reach the nearest station is safe?
Everyone understands that , that's why no one was complaining about the situation. As the bus provider handled the situation responsibly.
This makes sense. They started to compare bangladesh with first-world countries unknowingly sort of.
Kinda forgot that it's bangladesh, a third world country. Its not uk/scotland! No where near them or their system! 😀
Agreed! We, citizens of first world countries, sometimes forget that we are in a sense all privileged and that there are third world country out there. We cannot impose we standard of living to theirs as their countries are not as developed as ours.
Very well explained
they didn't took the responsibilities, they simply escaped. Otherwise there would have been police compliants about the attempt of the robbery on behalf of the passengers of that bus.
That would be the least responsible thing they could have done. They simply escaped and also, as mentioned, they didn't even bothered about asking any of the passengers out about their mental or physical health.
That's not responsibility. Stop feeding bullshit to the foreigners.
Back in the day green line used to warn that bus will not stop under any circumstances during night because of highway robberies.
Another point to consider is that the bus did not stop at midnight in the middle of nowhere due to concerns regarding passenger safety. The road conditions are deemed insufficiently safe to warrant a bus stop during nighttime hours.
This makes sense. The environment in the video cannot even see the street lights. Stopping hastily without knowing the surrounding environment may put everyone in a more dangerous situation.
But bald 👩🦲 🐖 Shannon got mad.
This seems to be the norm in these developing/third world countries. Alan and Shannon kind of being karens.

Thanks for sharing this video. I've been here a dozen years now and a intercity bus I was travelling in witnessed a head on collision between a bus and truck right in front of me. I went out to help the wounded and bloodied up people from the bus. It was horrific and I'm still traumatized. That's the last time I used a bus in Bangladesh. The illegal overtaking kills dozens every year.. 😢
It’s honestly horrific, I’m so sorry you had to witness this❤️
@@Alan_and_Shannonnot dozens but thousands get killed each year.
This kind of incident is very normal in Bangladesh. The bus drivers drive recklessly. Many many lives are lost in BD due to road accidents. I am very sorry u guys had to face this kind of incident. 😢
Thank you for showing this. I live in Bangladesh as well. It reminded me how the people don't care about their services anymore.
You were almost got robbed if the bus had stopped at that moment.
yeah
they didn't stop cause they were scared of highwaymen. There is news of robbers blocking the highway and looting everything. Although these robberies don't occur anymore but you never know.
As a Bangladeshi i always try to avoid bus rides. The bus drivers in Bangladesh don't want to follow the rules at all. I hope you will also try to avoid buses in BD :")
SI le zhenghao, LIang ge Shabi😂😊
Don't forget highway robbers.
There is another reason for not stopping in the middle of the road at midnight. The Dhaka-Chittagong highway is an active robbery point and they often use this kind of tactics to stop the buses and then embarks on when it stops. Stay safe guys
Wow, i dont know that bangladesh is so dangerous ... 😮 the only i know about bd is dirty
@@IDMarketer Common problem in the whole subcontinent when the population is crammed into a little space
The last counter guy was like, "You bought economy tickets, so its ok to be crushed"! 😅😅
I think the couple learned their lesson this time.
Glad you guys are safe. They did't stop after accident because there can be thief or robber in middile of the highway. so they drive the bus and didn't stop. Be safe guys.♥
This is exactly what I would have said,best you guys don't travel to bangladesh until things improve,we're following you but not impressed with your reaction its a third world country wake up,also did not appreciate your foul language,all the best.
So the robber will rob a bus full of people at least 40 or more? That robber must be very ballsy or Bangladesh is the most unsafe country.😐 and what about police?
@@Wisewolf09 you probably have noticed that it was dark everywhere so it was unsafe to stop there. What i found strange is that no one else complained about it and ask for refund. Probably because they go through this quite often.
@Wisewolf09 the robber(s) could have guns, machetes, knives, etc. Not defending the driver overall, but like, you never know. He should have stopped a few KM down the road seeing no one following him though.
@@Wisewolf09The robbers are ballsy and the people here are just p6&&ies . I mean think about it, there's a reason it's a 3rd world country :')
Alan & Shannon, really sorry, to see your coach crashed an accident. In Bangladesh, accidents happen frequently since night coach drivers are often deprived of proper sleep. They only care about money and engage into long driving repeatedly.
So, its better to book Luxury bus tickets for long journey. Also, it is requested to gather public reviews about "transports" that care about safety and customer satisfaction.
However, sounds good, that you didn’t face any injuries. Hope you will enjoy the rest of your journey. ❤
It’s ashame that companies but the bus drivers in that position that they have to choose money over people’s safety
What happened was unacceptable. I really feel sorry that you guys went through these kinds of situations. But to be honest Green Line is one of the finest here. Next time you may try Hanif/Shohagh/Saint Matrtins if you ever try again.
@@Alan_and_Shannon Recently, a couple was gang-raped by Indians while traveling in India. Safety comes first when traveling abroad.
@@Alan_and_Shannonbetter go bk to China
@@Alan_and_Shannonyou too care about money lol.. why don’t take flight or good bus to travel. oh sorry u need to make drama to get views lol.. 😂
So sorry you had to go through this experience. We had a very unsavoury experience with green line ourselves. They made a standard pit stop and while my wife and I were taking a washroom break, the bus straight up left without us, no call or headcount to check if everyone boarded the bus. We had to take another bus and ride for 30 minutes to catch up with our initial bus which had our luggage. They just laughed the matter off just like they did in your video. No accountability whatsoever. The sad reality is that most of us here in Bangladesh are highly desensitised to reckless bus drivers because we are so used to it which is why most of us will just shake it off.
I would strongly advice you to take a flight to cox’s bazaar even though it’s much more expensive. Hope the rest of your trip is safer brother, take care!
Wow that is absolutely shocking, I'm so glad you managed to catch the bus up to collect your luggage. It's sad that the people of Bangladesh get used to this terrible service
Bro called the most expensive bus "worst bus"

Best bus in B'desh is like the BEST Cricket Team in B'desh ..... 30+ years old and still struggling against Zimbabwe
That’s why most of the young generation aim to go abroad because in here there is no safety of your life and no one even care. No explanation no liability for the rich people. Stay safe 😇

It's distressing to see that such a significant accident went unnoticed by the media. It's crucial that incidents like these receive widespread coverage in Bangladesh to raise awareness and prompt appropriate action from authorities. The safety of individuals should always be a top priority, and it's essential for the police to thoroughly investigate the accident and take necessary measures to prevent similar incidents in the future. This video should go viral to ensure that the message reaches as many people as possible.
Switching providers won't help. They're more or less the same. What you experienced is par for the course-not just there but all countries with similar institutional features.
Hi Alan and Shannon. I am glad that you both and the other passengers are not badly hurt after such a horrible accident. That driver must had deprived of sleep after long hours of driving! Remember you both were complaining about a driver in China who stopped the the coach and snored badly? At least he managed to had some sleep and drove you guy safely to your destination in the end.
Bro trust me im a bangadeshi im not even gonna argue with you BUS DRIVERS ARE THE WORSE!!!
Sometimes they even drive drunk and they dont even have a liscence dont ride bus
Honestly dont take any bus it dosent matter if it is green line or not every company is like this
And the "COMPENSATION" money they give you it was a bribe
Cox’s Bazar beach is actually 120 kilometers long.
And i'm so sorry that you guys have gone through a horrific accident
Try to return from Cox's Bazar by train.
Stay safe and never give up your safety to experience something new. I wish you all the best!
Great advice!
Green Line is one of the best bus service in Bangladesh. But it was an accident, no one expected it. So don't show your low mentality by unnecessarily blaming someone. Bangladesh bus service on long routes is quite good quality. The driver drove the bus in such bad conditions for your safety. It would not have been safe to stand on the street in the middle of the night.

Hey Mate, I have been following you guys since you both landed in Dhaka. Let me admit the fact, Greenline is one of the best bus companies here in Bangladesh. Unfortunately, i really not sure why they didn't do any concussion check at the first place.
I suggest you call 999 for any emergency support needed from Police. Also, I suggest to travel with Shohag Company's bus next time. Also travelling is safer during day time via bus. If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to knock me for any insights.
Hi boss you have to understand its not Europe or america this is Bangladesh and try to avoid bus travel because all buss drivers are very dangerous driving
Honestly, riding a bus in Bangladesh would be way safer than taking the New York subway any day of the week.
@hermesliteratus882 the blax ruined the public transportation in New York and Los Angeles
Greenline is one of the best, most reputed, and safest buses in BD.. But how did it happened we don't know. But we think that the bus shouldn't stop there because of robbers .. Thanks a lot to the driver that you back without any harm..
My guy, there is no way you are complaining about a small crash that you were not even close to. Your overreacting and the crash wasn't that bad like literally chill. If there was anyone that was injured, someone could tell the bus driver and the staff could assist. The bus didn't stop because there are many robberies at night some are armed. I get it that you were worried but pointing at the poor bus driver wouldn't make the situation any better and be thankful that he saved you. In that situatuon, he couldn't really do anything and I don't know how the bus crashed so I'm not really blaming anyone. But you disrespecting the bus company and him is not good. If you were that keen to not travel by bus, then why did you not go by plane or train? I hope you read and reply to this, I want to hear your thoughts because you clearly don't update people after reading the comments and acknowledge what they've said. But you pointing at the bus driver like that, that was not right and that got me to writing this!
Small crash big crash is still a crash... and it is not even a small crash...
Also, They could lose their lives when the bus driver decided to keep driving the bus without proper window.
Hi guys. Kindly GreenLine provides best service in Bangladesh. The incident happened with you guys was worst. And You never traveled in Hanif Enterprise buses. I appreciate you are alive. We are sorry for the situation. But kindly don't show hatred towards Bangladesh.

Alan and Shannon, as a Bangladeshi, i feel very sorry for your worst experience in Bangladesh. I knew that Greenline is one of a good company that provide good service. But, what i saw, is just unacceptable.
I feel very sorry! But one thing is very true that, no one in Bangladesh, even government don't care about anyone’s health and safety...!
I hope things can change in the future!
Wait so you're saying the bus full crashed into other vehicles and just left them??? What about the damage / injuries done 😢
Try Shohag next time. Compare to others it's best bus operator
Bro, green line is one of the reputed company in Bangladesh. They are also famous for ensure safe journey for the passengers. But in Dhaka-Chittagong Highway, some robbers tries to stop busses by smashing on it or stopping the speed of other vehicles by keeping a vehicle across the road and I think your bus just smashed there. If that bus stopped you could get robbed. To make sure of passenger's safety, driver did not stopped there
Hello Alan & Shannon. First of all we feel so sorry for what you have faced there. It is so terrible. But as a Bangladeshi i Let you know that after accident if the bus stop there it will become worst. Because robbery risk. So our county bus will not stop like European or American does. You may lost your luges or in worst case all the bus member and passenger attacked by others and causes life risk. In our county culture did not works like yours. I can understand your concern and your mental situations but yeah in Bangladesh things works like this though it is not correct. But that driver and bus stuff did a terrible mistake and they suppose to punished but at the end they protect all the passengers. I hope you both will understand the the hole situation.❤️Love from Bangladesh.
Thank you for your kind words. If this was explained to us at the time the situation would have been less scary but as you saw not one person spoke to us
Love watching these new vlogs Alan and Shannon. This is what I call an adventure!
This is how life works in these countries…… Thank God you people are safe.
You don't have a clue get your face right
Right
Yeah and in your country life works with school shooters and bully gangs
Glad you guys are okay. That is an absolute disgrace that he continued driving that far after it as well. When you entered the bus there was a family in the front rows, so they were just getting showered with shards of glass? I am shocked man
You guys spend your whole carrier for making videos about paxtan 😂😂😂
Glad to see you good. You can avoid this company and try shohagh prestige a very safe bus company
I think they drove to chittagong cause there is a risk of robbery in the middle of highway
So sorry, this is life in thirdworld country like BD, hope you stay safe throughout your trip. The bus service you took is a good one, but unlucky with the driver /traffic.
It’s very unprecedented that Green line got accident! 😢😢😢
Clearly was attempted robbery considering all the other busses also having smashed windows... I understand the fear and frustration, but be thankful your driver kept going. If you were riding a bus in Mexico and this happened, the driver would've stopped, let the robbers onto the bus and you would've lost everything. Is this what you prefer?
Greenline is the worst bus in Bangladesh according to the service.. I stopped riding this bus years ago after 3 worst back to back experiences. Thanks God you arrived safely after the incident.

Actually it's sometimes trap like you were traveling at night. Sometimes robbers or hijackers throw obstacles at night on the bus that the bus stops. The driver actually did right not stopping the bus. It doesn't happen always. Actually sorry to say but it's a bad luck. Normally happens when police gives low patroling in that place.
Average midnight ride in Bangladesh to Cox's Bazar, I can see that you guys arent used to the incident. This is why after a couple of these experiences, me and my family decided to just go in the morning instead of taking risks with robbers in the middle of the night. Your especially even more vulnerable when your in a taxi/private car so, I recommend going to offroad places in third world countries at morning or afternoon.
Stop whining.
In England, everyone would have been on the roadside, in the dark, in the cold for hours waiting for a replacement bus.
People sometimes throw objects onto on coming vehicles and hope it would stop and rob passengers. The driver was brave enough to continue driving in the dark with no windscreen to get passengers out of a dark remote area to safety.
this is sheer ignorance. don’t think the windshield getting shattered would happen in the first place in most countries and you’re making it sound like a norm.

No rules here in Bangladesh, call police or not doesn't matter. Drivers bribe police officers to withdraw cases. Sometimes people die like animals & nobody even come to help them out.
By the way, frequent robberies happen in the middle of these highways that's why maybe he didn't stop or he just ran away because of police case issues.
So sorry this had to happened to you. Let me explain some things here, please don't get offended.
Why the bus driver hadn't stopped the bus?
FOR YOUR SAFETY. The bus was in the the middle of nowhere & stopping there would've been a huge risk of being robbed. So, the driver kept driving for an hour to stop at a safe place. Every vehicle on the road in Bangladesh at night is at risk of being robbed.
Why they didn't tell you this reason?
Because of THE LANGUAGE BARRIER. Please remember this while you're in foreign countries. You will face this again and again.
What about Green Line?
This company is THE LEAST BAD bus company in Bangladesh. Have you noticed I haven't said good? They should've apologized to you & calm you down & even with the language barrier they should've tried to make you understand.
About you two - YOU'RE TOO NAIVE FOR SOUTH ASIA. Please, hire a guide from a renowned tour company if you can. Use everything premium, for example planes, 4 or 5 star hotels, cars provided by hotels(ask for it), get the information from officers or hotel manager where you are about to go & make them accountable, if you find a trustworthy English speaking officer ask for his contact number.
Really worried about you two guys. Hope rest of your trip in Bangladesh is safe.
Why I like watching your channel is this: no matter how crazy things got, Shannon will still have the biggest smile on her face… well eventually.
It was in the middle of the night, it is even more dangerous to stop. It is actually safer to just keep going.
My aunt had an incident in Mexico where armed men at a roadblock stopped their bus to rob the passengers. The military was nearby, and the men fled before anything happened. Consider yourselves lucky.
Its a shame that this happened to the people on this bus but if everyone got robbed then you will say his a pusy for stopping the bus..driver new it's going to be a robbery that's why he drove of and stopped at a safe place. Stay safe Bangladesh is a great country don't let this incident put you of.❤
As a Bangladeshi I willl say you should travel by plane its so safety than bus journey because bus journey is very dangerous for night time! Stay safe.
And make sure to avoid Boeing 737 at all times, if you want to see the sunlight of the next day.
Jesus... I knew long-distance buses were the least safe way to travel anywhere in the world but this is something else! I'm just glad nothing more serious happened! Stay vigilant at all times, you two, not just on the road but watch out for pickpockets or other types of potential danger. Hope both of you come back to China intact!
As a bangladeshi, I'm very surprised because I've always known Greenline is the safest and luxury bus in bangladesh

Overnight long-distance buses were well-known for their bad safety record and bad hygiene etc., and this particular means of public transportation has largely been replaced by high-speed trains in China.
The Green Line is one of the best transport in Bangladesh. The incident that happens is very normal in Bangladesh. Even you notice no one complains about these among all passengers except you. You are expecting they should apologise but the fact is different here. The culture of seeking to apologise is still not grown here.

Why you guys work alone at night? It's totally unsafe in India and Bangladesh.
Not in India. Most night service buses run, long distance trucks run, all the night, highway police patrol vans also keep an eye. It's safe.
I am a Bangladeshi citizen. Currently living in Qatar. It is really sad to see this accident. If you are in any danger while traveling or if you need assistance, you can take the assistance of Bangladesh Tourist Police at any time. Have a safe trip, good luck, love, thank you, stay safe.
Green line is not worst bus in Bangladesh in fact
This is the best bus in Bangladesh .
Absolutely... i never had a bad experience with them...
Yes I like green line service

The longest beach in the world is Praia do Cassino, located in Brazil. Stretching approximately 254 kilometers (158 miles) along the Atlantic coast, it extends from the city of Rio Grande to the border with Uruguay.
Of course there are other alternative ways you can travel to Cox's Bazar.you will try to train or plan.
Chipping in for future plane or train ticket
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
No proper traffic system even in India...so much of accidents are faced everyday...
Brother the bus didn't crash! Sometimes in the highways of Bangladesh in the middle of the night Robbers breaks windows or makes trap to make the bus stop and the robbers try to rob the bus that's why they don't stop they didn't stop because of your safety
These guys are clearly budget travelers. Holy hell, peeps stop suggesting luxury stuff to them lmao. Not everyone who comes from abroad is loaded.
Ikr 😂😂
This not their big mistake bro
travellers travelling around the world are always budget oriented. why you are so mean?
@@reviewer8671 Mean? I'm just being straightforward. Fellas in the comment are listing different luxury places as if they are gonna go and spend millions on those luxury places.
Do not travel by bus. Train is safer and by air is the best if you can afford
Yes definitely agree, bus is not worth it
Green land is best bus service. May be it was driver fault. @@Alan_and_Shannon

@All place are near to another serially. That help u spending your money & time properly.
15:50 I m a bit worried about your safety instead when you pointed your finger to that driver blaming him not stopping and still took video capturing the bus damages and arguing with the officers using your video camera, etc. This is not UK but Bangladesh, a developing country, you cannot always apply your very high standards sometimes I guess. As you can see, most of these buses have suffered some kinds of smashes so it is just so usual for them, I doubt your complaint will change anything but may cause troubles to your journey.
平安是福，人无事就好。
i hope if you come to Hong Kong or visit Japan you'll reconsider the buses, both Municipal and the Highway buses are decent, and even overnighters in Japan are decent, with several highway pit-stops along the way to stretch your legs. although you'd still want to bring ear plugs from all the snoring. These two places should give you a refresh on the bus system being a decent way to travel around. I love the buses in Tokyo's outer areas, you see so much more because they drive through a lot of local streets. Same goes for Hong Kong, maybe a little less for Macau but it's still not bad there, especially for crossing the bridges between Macau side and Taipa/Coloane(aka Cotai) side.
Everything in Japan is pure luxury and pricey
bus in China are all decent you dont have to only list Hong Kong
@@qianfong5397 that’s probably true, although they have had some experiences with the overnighter coaches in China and the experience wasn’t that great. i’m sure the local municipal buses are good in China, i don’t have enough experience to comment on them other than Hangzhou’s BRT is great, i’m just not a big fan of the ridiculously wide roads in Binjiang district. 😅
Dear Alan you are a very decent level headed person. Props to you for standing up for the people effected by that accident. Am an Indian from Kolkata, West Bengal. I am sorry to say but such is the culture and state of the South Asian subcontinent. India isn't much different. You might not like it but chaos and indiscipline is so naturalized in us that we forget basic human duties often. Cheers brother! May your journeys be safe!
So sorry you two had go through this horrible situation. Yes bus drivers in BD are known to be reckless and have little regards to safety. Hopefully everything stays positive for the rest of your trip.
We feel sorry for the situation that you guys through. But thank you for showing the real picture of the transportation system. Lets hope this video gets attention of the authorities.
And I am glad that you guys made it safe. Looking forward to seeing you guys explore coxs bazar
Alan and Shanon, really sorry about what happened with you both. Life is a gamble for many situation in Bangladesh.
Bangladeshi doesn't know after bus crash how to ask people "are you ok" ! Its common
Guys, you should thank to the driver for saving your life from robbery
Dear Alan & Shannon,
What happened with you guys was terrible 😢. I, as a living citizen here, feel ashamed and sorry for that incident happened with you guys.
You could take help from the "Tourist Police" there. Just google it for more info.
Again, travelling bus at night here is pretty risky sometime but this scenario is less common while travelling on bus at day time.
Other bus services like Saint-Martin, Unique, Shyamoli are comparatively better here.
Stay safe.
Enjoy a great vacation here.
May be we are not so developed country but we people have a big heart. We as a nation we are highly welcoming to foreigners, upon necessity you will find most of the people will assist you in case you need any help.
I wish you guys a healthy and happy life ahead in your life.
I hate to break it to Alan and Shannon but travel safety is 💩 even in the western world. Have you seen the string of recent airline tires, doors and landing gear that have literally failed or fallen off during mid-flight with hundreds of passengers? And none of those airlines apologize to the public yet they charge the public out the wazoo. Unfortunately this is the state of the world it's falling apart.
You are absolutely right.
Agreed, but we must be aware and try our best to be safe
