More than two dozen people who were hurt escaped the bus before it became fully engulfed in fire, police said. By the time the blaze was put out, only the vehicle's charred, twisted frame remained.

The bus rear-ended a truck sitting in a traffic jam. In the 2nd photo at link, you can see that the accident occurred on a curve.
2 people with life-threatening injuries were taken to hospital. The bus driver was among the dead. The article reports there were 2 bus drivers on board, so doesn't appear operator fatigue would be a factor. The truck driver wasn't injured.
