Collision between a bus and a trolleybus in Almaty
Alrighty then, let's dive into some juicy news, shall we?
On today's agenda, there's been a spot of trouble on the roads of Almaty. Seems like bus No.25 had a bit of a run-in with trolleybus No.19, right smack dab in the Bostandyk district. Now, this ain't no friendly game of bumper cars, people!
Here's the skinny: at about 11:45 this morning, our bus driver buddy was zoomin' along Prospekt Abaye, just east of Razyakayeva Street, when he encountered a bit of a snag. You see, ol' trolleybus 19 was makin' its rounds, pickin' up and dropin' off passengers at a bus stop.
Now, you won't be surprised to hear that this little fender-bender left a dozen folks needing a trip to the doctor. Thankfully, the police have swung into action and started up an investigation! The Bostandyk District Police Department are on the case, combing through every detail.
Now, Almaty ain't exactly a stranger to these kinds of mix-ups. You might remember way back in the fall of last year, a bus swerved onto the roadside and collided with a bus stop — luckily, nobody got hurt. But it ain't all history, mate! Just this July, an Almaty city bus hit the wall of a store, and inAugust, a trolleybus driver lost control and smashed into a bus stop. Yikes!
But hey, let's not sulk in the past. If you'reever involved in a bus-related accident due to the driver's negligence, you might be able to claim compensation — up to 17.25 million tenge, in fact! (You can learn more about that in our article.)
Weather might have played a role in this latest incident, too. You see, on April 28, Almaty was expecting partly cloudy skies, rain, thunderstorms, and even hail! That can sure make for tricky drivin', folks.
