In yet another accident involving a wet-lease BEST bus, an 86-year-old woman was killed after she tried to cross in front of the bus after alighting at Mazagaon. BEST officials said at 7.55 am, a BEST wet-lease bus (Route 134) driven by Dadu Krishna Agiwale, 32, was proceeding to Prabodhankar Thakare Udyan (Sewri) from Backbay Depot.

As the bus approached the Byculla telephone exchange, an woman, Asma Tayyab Bali Antari, disembarked at the stop. She then attempted to cross the road from in front of the bus, colliding with the front left tire. This caused her to fall onto the road, where the tire subsequently ran over her.
