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?

Comfort for the families who have lost loved ones ... strength to those who are injured ... mercy on those involved in rescue ... may God be their portion in the days and months ahead. Amen ...

May God comfort the families of these loved ones and give them peace and strength, in Jesus' name.

This particular descent on the motorway between Grenoble and Gap has long been considered dangerous and is off-limits for buses without special authorisation

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?

Getting ready to crash....

I'd guess that the bus's brakes had already failed by the time they got to the bottom of the hill. They shoulda been inching downhill in first gear.

The bus driver was 22 years old. Probably a greenhorn with lack of experience.

Well, he actually WAS 22 years old +
