The bus was carrying 51 people, two drivers and 49 Polish nationals

It sounds like the bus drivers were not Polish nationals, which leads to questions about why locals were not aware of the restrictions. I'm sure there will be much more to report on after the tragedy is dealt with.

This particular descent on the motorway between Grenoble and Gap has long been considered dangerous and is off-limits for buses without special authorisation, a local official told France-Info.

According to the official, the Polish bus had not received authorization to travel on the motorway. The ban was imposed after a bus carrying Belgian tourists crashed in the same spot in 1973, killing 43 people.

Oh, what a horrible accident! Prayers being said for those who passed away and their families — also praying that those who were ‘gravely injured’ will survive and recover. Prayers also for the witnesses and first responders as I can’t imagine what it would be like to respond to a situation like this... it must be horrific.

Wow, that's terrible.

Was the bus made out of tinfoil?

The stretch of twisty and steep road is very popular with sports car drivers who meet up there from all over Europe to try it. What the hell was a bus doing on it?
