There are still 16 of those injured in the bus crash on Wednesday evening in hospital  this includes the driver and the guide. All have no danger to life. The 29 people that lost their lives, 18 women and 11 men, all were German nationality. We know the driver tried to stop the bus by driving it along the wall of properties, and that the problem started as soon as the bus left the hotel. Brakes or accelerator look as though they could be the main cause of the bus loosing control., the bus only travelled a matter of 150 meters before turning over. We also know that most passengers wouldn’t have had seat belts on, and only 5 were found in the bus, the rest had been thrown from the bus as it crashed. A medical plane from Germany arrived in Madeira yesterday, this might be as part of insurance that people had, to get them back for medical care in Germany.

The President of the Republic traveled to the Hospital Dr. Nélio Mendonça today and visited the wounded of the accident that involved a bus, noting that “most” of the German tourists who are there return to his country on Saturday. “As I said, tomorrow [Saturday] many of the sick here are Germans, the vast majority go to their homes, but I have found in those German tourists with whom I spoke just the same will, the same recognition, the same gratitude and the same will not to forget Madeira and to return, “Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa told reporters outside Funchal hospital. The head of state said that he had been with the two Portuguese who are also hospitalised there, the driver – “Mr. Zé” – and the guide – “to Carlota”, noting that she is “a woman in arms”, and that she “is very resistant”. Marcelo also wanted to express the “gratitude of all the Portuguese” for the work developed by those who helped the victims.
