This paper investigates three main factors that cause the bus accident, namely driver, vehicle and environment. Field data is collected to accommodate the methodology. Particularly, the variables of driver's driving behavior, bus type, and road type have been examined by statistical approach. Driver's behavior is discussed in terms of driver personal characteristics and passenger rating. The acceleration of bus is important to address the bus dynamic. Chosen road site characterizes mountainous component. These are three main factors to be examined. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) analysis, hypothesis testing and Pearson Correlation have been carried out to explain the relationship among the variables. Statistical results show that the variables are significant to each other.
