The driver was driving dangerously and erratically, constantly trying to overtake lorries before a curve and speeding up and then suddenly braking. It felt very unsafe and scary to be in the bus.

We left 1:20 late and we arrived 1:30 late. Other thank that, the travel was smooth and quite. Everybody had been able to sleep all night. Leaving earlier would not have been the best idea because there was a lot of trafic. Changing the departure and arrival hours would be the best to avoid the trafic.
