Toyota Rush Suffers Massive Damage In A Crash With Korope – But Who Do You Think Is At Fault?
Toyota Rush SUV suffers massive front end damage in a crash with Korope – But who do you think is at fault?
Late last month, a Toyota Rush received a massive dent on the front end following a crash with a Mini commercial bus, popularly known as as Korope, at Adeniji inwards Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos State.
While disclosing this in a post on its official X handle, the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) posted a video from the scene of the crash, which shows that the Rush crashed into the Mini Bus.
The caption on the video read : “An accident involving a mini commercial bus and Sedan has occurred at Adeniji inw the Bridge, taking up a lane, alongside onlookers.”
Reacting to the video reshared by Gold Myne TV, some users blame the Korope driver, owning to the fact that majority of them are reckless. But a user noted the driver of the Toyota is at fault due to the fact that the Rush hit the bus from behind.
zionstarphotography said : “Rule of driving: you hit someone from behind, you are at fault…. Jeep should pay the Bus.
Replying to zionstarphotography’s comment, a user turner_paige122, asked : “What if the bus caused the accident??. If you’re a good driver you won’t just judge like this.”
A user, thundhe_, who also replied to turner_paige122’s comment said :
“So how should it be judged. If you are a good driver, you’d make sure there is space between you and the car in front on you to avoid situations like this.”
Another user, humbletea147, also said :
“It doesn’t matter if you hit someone at the car you are guilty. That’s why in driving school dey tell you give 200meter from infront of you.”

femi_odion said :
“No cameras in Nigeria for such situations only if the SUV has a body camera that is working properly with a date base to save up the videos maybe such videos can help in situations like that if the bus driver is truly at fault.”
