Do they know what caused the accident?M: Well, you know how horrible the traffic is around that area.W: Yes, it’s one of the worst in the city.M: It was particularly terrible this morning, so the cab driver was in a hurry to get to his destination. The driver was racing around all the buses, and suddenly a double-decker bus was directly in his path.W: So what happened next?M: The cab driver couldn’t stop in time, so the cab hit the bus with great force.W: Because he was driving fast?M: Yes, as I mentioned before, the cab driver was in a hurry, so he was driving much faster than he should’ve been.W: How did so many people get injured?M: After the cab hit the bus, the bus was pushed into a shop.W: Oh, that’s awful!
