Company defends dozing bus driver in Singapore
A viral video allegedly showing a bus driver asleep at the wheel has sparked online debate after his employers insisted he just had a bad neck.
The footage, showing a bus driver on the busy roads of Singapore, appears to show him nodding off repeatedly and struggling to maintain concentration.
A concerned passenger filmed the footage and uploaded it to Facebook, where it has been shared more than 5,500 times and sparked fierce debate.
However, the transit company who employ him insisted all was not as it looked.
"While the video seems to suggest that our bus captain was dozing off at the wheel, our findings based on the CCTV footage from the bus reveals that this was not the case," Tammy Tan, senior vice president of SBS Transit's corporate communications, told Singapore’s Channel NewsAsia.
Ms Tan said that the driver suffers from neck pains that cause him to “bend more than normal.”
She went on to add that the man’s condition does not affect his driving ability.
"The bus captain kept to his lane, slowed down when approaching bus stops and also stopped safely behind other buses or vehicles,” she said.
However, several commenters on the video were far from convinced.
“Accidents happen in a split second. That one second could end up changing everyone’s lives forever,” one Facebook user wrote.
“If it was me, I would wake the bus driver up for safety,” another user wrote.
However, some leapt to the defence of the driver.
“He may be having some problems with his nerves,” a user named Ang wrote.
