The social media posts inform that no casualties were reported in the accident as the first responders came to aid within minutes of the accident

The accident which took place on Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Road heading towards Oman had seen ZERO injuries or casualties.

The Director of the Department of Traffic of the Outer Region at Abu Dhabi Traffic Police said that the first responders quickly reached the site of the accident to rescue the pilgrims from any further commotion.

The pilgrims have been provided with temporary lodging to take rest in, meals and drinks until alternative means of transportation can be arranged.

Thus, the sleepy bus drivers can alternate amongst themselves, ensuring the safety of the passengers as well as themselves

This is the second accident that’s happened in two months involving an Omani bus
