Dreadful coach crash in Switzerland.

Both drivers and a score of children killed:-

A recent crash involving a driver from the UK is thought to have resulted from the driver falling asleep - even though there was a relief driver travelling on the bus. I wonder if drivers maintain different sleep patterns during the stay in the resort?

Initial reports of the current incident are suggesting that 'excessive speed' might be the cause.
