The bus driver was made responsible

Naturally, the driver of the minibus was blamed beacuse of what happened. According to the man, he was unaware that the girl was left in the vehicle. The driver repeatedly threatened to end his life with his own hands after learning: Inez was transported to Debrecen by a rescue helicopter in a serious condition.

As rtl.hu reports, the 56-year-old man is being treated at a hospital in Szolnok. Locals say he got a nervous breakdown.

Locals also revealed that they know the bus driver as an ordinary, hard-working man who has long had this profession. They do not understand how this tragedy could happen.

How to prevent tragedies like this?

“We think that for such a task, when there is no escort in the vehicle, it is the joint task and responsibility of the kindergarten teacher or the driver to check on arrival if there is anything left, not just someone, but something, a bag of medicine, anything else in the vehicle,”

– said Imre Kulcsár from the Hungarian Road Transport Association (MKFE).
