A bus careered off one of India’s busiest roads into a ravine Monday killing at least 29 people, police said.

The driver of the bus was suspected to have fallen asleep before the double-decker bus hit a divider and fell into a gap between two flyovers on the Delhi-Agra expressway, according to police.

More than 150,000 people a year are killed on India’s roads, which are notorious for poor infrastructure and speeding drivers.
