Postbus accident in Grub: Three injured after dramatic collision!
On Tuesday, January 14, 2025, a dramatic traffic accident involving a postal bus occurred in Grub, which seriously injured three people.

While the driver was trying to repair the damage, the vehicle, which was carrying seven passengers, suddenly rolled off. Despite a hasty emergency braking by the driver, the postal bus was unable to maintain control and overturned onto its side over the edge of the road.
