Bus driver who allowed woman to sit on his lap to give statement to cops


JASIN: A bus driver who allegedly allowed a woman to sit on his lap while driving a bus will appear at the Jasin police headquarters to give his statement.

Jasin OCPD Supt Lee Robert said officers had contacted the driver, who is now in Sungai Besi, Kuala Lumpur.

He said the 36-year-old man and the woman involved will give a statement about their actions, which could have put passengers and other road users at risk.

"The woman is in Kedah and will head to Kuala Lumpur tonight and both of them will come to the Jasin District Police Headquarters on Wednesday (April 15) for questioning," he said in a statement here on Tuesday (April 14).

He said the case is being investigated under Section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987.

An eight-second video went viral, showing the woman sitting on the driver's lap as the vehicle moved.

Initial police checks show the incident happened at about 7.30 pm on April 12 at the Bemban Rest and Service Area (R&R) southbound entrance ramp. – Bernama
