Both drivers of the sleeper bus and the methanol-loaded tanker were found guilty of breaking the traffic law and causing a rear-end collision that killed 36 people in blaze in northwestern Shaanxi Province last Sunday.
The driver of the long-distance sleeper bus died in the accident while the two tanker drivers have been held by police and may face criminal charges, investigators sent by the State Council said yesterday.
The disaster happened in Yan'an City on Sunday afternoon when the bus ran into the rear of the tanker and was engulfed in a raging fire on the Baotou-Maoming Expressway. The bus was full at the time and only three passengers survived. They are still being treated for burns in a local hospital.
Thirty-five of the dead have been identified and authorities have worked out a compensation plan for the victims' families.
