In the early hours of Saturday, Mexico was shaken by a catastrophic accident on federal highway 44-D, near the Osiris toll booth in Zacatecas. A passenger bus from the Omnibus de México line collided with a cargo truck, leaving 24 people dead and six more injured in one of the nation’s deadliest highway accidents this year. This horrifying incident has sent shockwaves through communities across the country, as distraught families await news and authorities scramble to determine how such a tragedy could have occurred.
The ill-fated bus began its journey from Tepic, Nayarit, making additional stops in Guadalajara and Zapopan, Jalisco, to pick up passengers before heading northward toward Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua. The passengers, a mix of men and women from all walks of life, were bound for the border city, likely filled with anticipation and hopes for the journey ahead. But just after 2:30 a.m., as the bus made its way along the Aguascalientes-Zacatecas highway, tragedy struck.
