==VICTIMS' RELATIVES==
Dear mother. We're going home now.
Families of victims brought clothing items from the deceased for the religious ritual at the site of accident on Freeway No. 2. The bus inferno took the lives of 26. The bodies have been identified by DNA analysis, and family members mourned their loss at the ritual. Bereaved family members were overcome with emotion and cried out in grief, calling their loved ones to come home. Mainland Affairs Council Minister Katharine Chang visited the victim's families to pay her condolences. Distressed family members demanded to know the truth about the cause of the tragedy.
==VICTIMS' RELATIVES==
We want to know how our family died. Are you doing anything to investigate?
==KATHERINE CHANG, Mainland Affairs Council Minister==
This wa a tragic accident. The government and the industry are doing our best to make sure this kind of tragedy never happens again.
Families of victims think this bus fire tragedy is unacceptable. There are surveillance cameras all along the freeway, but no one spotted the fire and reported it immediately.
==VICTIMS' RELATIVES==
When smoke was coming out of the bus, why was it still going at such a high speed? How come no one reported the fire department?
Taoyuan District Prosecutors Office has obtained tape recording of an allegedly revealing a secrete phone conversation in a call by a bus operator staff member to a bus technician. The staff mentioned that the bus company hired uncertified technicians to modify the buses, and that's what caused the accident. Prosecutors confirmed they have the recording but declined disclose details on an ongoing investigation.

我的老媽媽

冒著高溫的天氣,家屬帶著罹難者衣物,到國道2號西向2.8公里事發處招魂。陸客團火燒車造成26人死亡,經過DNA比對確認身分、認屍,下午兩點開始進行招魂儀式,哀淒的哭喊聲,讓現場的人都感到鼻酸。
目睹事發現場,呼喊家人回家的家屬,情緒再度崩潰,更讓哀傷氣氛瀰漫了整個國道。
陸委會主委張小月,也到靈堂向家屬致意。張小月輕拍著罹難者家屬肩膀,一看到張小月到來,家屬泣不成聲的控訴,死因到底查了沒有,要求台灣方面給出真相。
==罹難者家屬==
我們的親人是怎麼死的
你們(調查)做沒做啊
==行政院陸委會主委 張小月==
這次這個不幸的事情
政府 業者大家都非常的盡心盡力
在努力檢討
希望將來這樣遺憾的事情
不要再發生
整起火燒車事件,罹難者家屬無法接受、國道上沿路都有監視錄影器,竟然沒有人員發現馬上通報,才會釀成悲劇。
==罹難者家屬==
這個車已經冒煙了
而且還在高速行駛
為什麼不通知消防去停止
整起事件最新偵辦進度,是桃園地檢署已取得一份錄音檔,疑似是玫瑰石通運職員打給前汽車技師的秘密對話,提到會發生事故的原因,是車公司找了沒有證照的技師、改裝車體才釀災。而檢方雖證實有這份錄音檔,但因偵查不公開,目前還無法具體說明。
