On 8 March 2003, a Neoplan Skyliner double-decker tour bus carrying 53 people veered off the I/3 road (part of European route E55) near the hamlet of Nažidla in Bujanov, Czech Republic, and overturned, rolling seven meters down a slope and killing 19. A twentieth victim died of his injuries two and a half years later. 26 more people were severely injured. The passengers were members and family of the TJ Slovan Karlovy Vary swimming club returning from a skiing trip in the Alps; half of the victims were under 20 years old. In 2018, it was considered the worst transport accident in the Czech Republic since the breakup of Czechoslovakia in 1993.
