Officials say 34 people have been killed by a bus that swerved off the road, the bus originally struck 2 people, killing one immediately and injuring others who were immediately sent to a hospital for their injuries. The vehicle rammed into a big crowd of street musicians. The driver tried to flee the scene but was caught by witnesses. The witnesses then became hostile, and more people were injured and killed. They even tried to light the bus on fire. The driver is now in custody but it is not certain why he rammed the people.

Questions-
1. Why do you think the driver rammed people?
2. What would you do if you were a witness and saw the driver fleeing?
Response-
I think the driver probably was under some sort of drug, weather it be alcohol or something stronger, that made him loose control of his car. If I were a witness at the scene and I saw the driver trying to run away then I would most likely have tracked him down and brought him back to the scene so the police could come and get him, but I don't think I would have become hostile like the other witnesses did.

Well done Brady!
The driver could have been on drugs, drunk, or had a problem with the people. If I was a witness I would first call the police, and tell them what just happened. After I was done with that I would try to go after the bus driver to tell the police where he was, and make sure he didn't do the same again.
The driver was probably drunk or somehow mentally sick and he went crazy. But I think it's more likely that he was drunk or high or somehow under some kind of drug. If I would witness something like that I would call the police right away and I would try to help injured people as much as I possibly could.
I think he did it because he was either mentally disabled or he just was against the people for what they were doing. If I was not hurt and saw the driver get out and run away I would call the cops, then I would chase him down.
I agree with you when you said that he was mentally disabled or had a personal vendetta. I also agree with you when you say you would call the cops then try to chase him down. Thanks for the comment!
The driver could have been mentally disabled or just could have went crazy. I would have called the police about the driver fleeing the scene and told them what he looked like, hopefully they could have caught him.
I agree with you when you say that he could have been mentally disabled, and possibly gone crazy. I also agree with you when you say that you would call the police and told them what he looked like. Thanks for the comment!
The driver may have had some health problem or on some kind of medication. If I was a witness to this I would call 911 to get help right away, hoping they could save people as soon as possible.
I completely agree with you and I like the new stance you have when you say that he could have had mental issues or been on some sort of medication. I also agree with you when you say that you would call 911. Thanks for the comment!
I completely agree with you that the driver was under the influence of some sort of drug, wether it be alcohol or other drug. I also agree with you when you say that you would try and stop the driver because it was the right thing to do! Thanks for the comment!
