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."
