The bus breakdown for hours with no proper updates from intercape we had to wait for three hours in order for the bus to get fixed and our safety was compromised Clearly intercape does not do bus inspections before realising them for long distance trips furthermore aircons were not working ,we were dying of heat 🥲🥲
