ROAD SAFETY INFORMATIONS
The causes of all road accidents (bus accidents reflect the same trends) can be divided into three main categories:
1. Human factors
2. External factors
3. Vehicle conditions
Starting with human factor according to Tanzania police finding it is major factor, human error causing accidents is not only confined to drivers but also Passengers and pedestrians also contribute to accidents. It has been mentioned the following human factor cause of accident in the road:
i. Misjudgment,
ii. Excessive speed
iii. Overtaking errors
iv. Negligent pedestrians, passengers, cyclists and cart pushers
v. Alcohol and drugs consumption
vi. Reckless driving
vii. Overloading of passengers and goods
viii. Parking errors
ix. Driver fatigue
Secondly, External factor involves the different contribution outside of driver which lead the accident to occur mostly is technical and awareness of that route to driver, below are few main external cause of road accident:
i. poor road condition
ii. poor road engineering and alignment
iii. lack of road signs and markings
iv. erratic traffic signals due to frequent power cuts
Thirdly, vehicle condition according to statistics from police records the low percentage of vehicle condition lead accident but most of them are caused by lack proper maintenance facilities or programs. Vehicle maintenance for minor repairs was carried out at backyard workshops after a persistent outcry from the driver about a particular vehicle fault. Major repairs are undertaken at external workshops, the majority of which belong to friends.
