Revelations from Genting bus crash


IT sounds like a Believe It Or Not saga. According to news reports the driver whose coach crashed on the road to Genting Highlands, taking the lives of two tourists and injuring others, does not have a valid driving licence.

If that’s not enough, he had 27 previous traffic summonses (“Genting accident: Tour bus driver has no licence, 27 traffic violations, say cops”, The Star, June 29; online at tinyurl.com/2y2rvc74).
