Death of a child similar to that of an insect
<p>13 December 2012 my son was ****ed by a negligent Golden Arrow Bus Service driver who skipped the orange traffic light. He was knocked and suffered serious head injuries which led to his death on 14 December 2012.</p> <p>I left East London and stayed at local B&B in Cape Town for a week arranging for the body to be moved back to Mthatha, our home. The cost to move the body was about R20 000, and the funeral estimated to be around R50 000.</p> <p> </p> <p>What is so dissapointing is that there was absolutely no assistance from the company who is responsible for my son's death. The very least could have been assistance in moving the body for the family, but insted all these cost were left for the family to dig themselves deeper into debt.</p> <p>For such a big company like Golden Arrow not to show sympathy in such a devastating incident is heart breaking, as if the life of my son is so worthless like stepping on an insect and walking away.</p> <p> </p> <p>For the sake of peace and closure to this matter I would appreciate contact with Golden Arrows, our family has lost a bread winner and yet here we are still in debt with a very sour taste and ugly memory.</p>
