A tragic incident on Watling Street left nine-year-old Ada Bicacki dead after being struck by a bus driven by 23-year-old Martin Asolo-Agogua, who was under the influence of drugs. Ada was cycling with her father and younger brother when the bus swerved onto the pavement. Asolo-Agogua was sentenced to four years in prison after pleading guilty to causing death by dangerous driving. The Bicacki family has called for systemic change to prevent further road tragedies, expressing their deep anguish over their loss in emotional statements.
My daughter is gone. She was nine-years-old and innocent. Why is she gone? Because a 23-year-old shirked his responsibility, took drugs, partied all night, and then got behind the wheel of a bus the following morning.
The sound of the tyres hitting the curb. Looking back and seeing Ada's body bouncing between the bus and the wall. Holding her in my lap. Her broken lungs struggling for every breath.
