Authorities said ten people were killed and more than 30 were injured after the bus hit several vehicles on a paid gate at one of the most busy highways in the northern Philippines.
The bus driver, who was detained, said he fell asleep at the wheel, AFP police said, adding that four children were among the dead.
Buses on nearly 100 km (62mi) Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway often grow workers between Manila and surrounding provinces. The crash on Thursday happened when families were traveling on work day.
The Transport Department ordered the suspended North bus, a large bus operator in the region and a company that owned a vehicle that participated in the accident.
The bus driver may be charged with “reckless negligence, leading to numerous murders,” AFP police said. A bus conductor was also detained.
The accident also involved three sports vehicles and one truck with containers, the Filipin Red Cross said on Facebook.
The organization stated that in another post on Wednesday, providing food and other help to people in the hospital affected by the disaster.
Death bus accidents in the Philippines are not uncommon.
Drug use among bus drivers has also spoken with headlines in recent weeks – though it was unclear whether it was a factor in the crash on Thursday.
In April, some state -owned vehicles companies – including buses, jeeps and tricks – collided with the suspension after 84 drivers who experienced positives on the forbidden substances.
On Friday, after a recent accident after a recent accident, local media reported, Vin Dizon, the secretary of the transport, implies representatives of almost 30 bus companies.
“I really find out. I will be honest with them. What happens, why you have all the crash, why your drivers are positive about drugs,” he said.
“I will be directly with our bus companies, because if they do not make themselves together, if they don’t, they will really regret.”
In 2023, 17 bus passengers were killed after the car brakes fell, and he plunged into the ravine on the central Philippines, along the winding road known among the locals as the “killer curve”.
