This sleepy bus driver was caught dozing off intermittently during his journey. He kept yawning and even closed his eyes while driving.

STOMPer Stunned, a passenger who caught the bus driver on video, said:

"I was on board a west-bound bus service 97, on 22nd May 2009.

"The bus number plate was SBS 9078.

"The bus arrived at Jurong East Interchange at about 07:35am (timing on the EZ-link counter).

"On my journey from Hong Leong Gardens Shopping centre, where I boarded, I noticed that during the entire journey, the bus captain seemed to be yawning non-stop.

"The bus also kept jerking.

"At times, I noticed that he even closed his eyes while driving.

"This kind of driving is very dangerous for the passengers on board the bus.

"I hope SBS Transit can look into this and see what can be done."

Peasants are a ungrateful lot.

A nationalised transport corporation brings in cheap foreign talent to increase profits so that fare hikes will be reduced, perhaps cheaper talents may kill some peasants given their reckless driving but the over aim is commendable! Peasants must be appreciative and allow the cartels to do their work with minimal dissenting views and videos.
 
During NS a soldier committed suicide at the MT line by hanging.

The NSlave was about to face charge and for running the vehicle he was driving into a ditch during a night exercise after he honestly admitted that he had momentarily dozed off under dark and low visibility.

No one was hurt and the vehicle commander was only passenger, the tonner was carrying store!

Now, we allow import and pays FTrash like this to drive irresponsibly on our roads!

If an accident occur then the bus company profit from being accompliance
to murder for the passengers or other road users!
