Ignorance of South African Lifes

On Sunday the 12/02/2023 at 13:37 had a terrible experience that nearly caused a fatal crash. I was driving from Botshabelo to Bloemfontein when I came across Interstate bus that was driving from Bloemfontein direction towards Botshabelo. As I came closer to the bus, the bus shot a stone the hit and cracked my windscreen and I nearly caused an accident Fortunately I managed to control my vehicle until it was stationery. I then immediately called Interstate and informed them about my situation then they said i must report the incident at the Depot near Hostel one in Bloemfontein, I then went and stated my case and the took my particulars and they promised me that their supervisor will call me on Monday the 13/02/2023 but nothing happened. On Tuesday the 14/02/2023 I sent Interstate an email stating my case, on 15/02/2023 I received a call from Interstate and they said they can not assist me with anything because its not their problem that I came under such situation. I then requested the gentlemen to put everything he told me in writing and nothing has been done yet. Now I understand why so many fatal crashes on our roads, it is because of the same attitude we get from this Big companies who does not care about the life's of ordinary South Africans. Anyone who can help please do so that we save the life's of many more voiceless citizens.
