Re: Bus Reverses Killing Six Year Old Girl
From the article: "The police have arrested the driver and the conductor of the bus. The bus is also in the police custody." and... ""The private bus driver had reversed the bus on the main road to avoid a van in front of the Rawatawatta-Colombo bus-stand," he said. "The motorbike with the girl and her parents was right behind the reversing bus and was hit, he said. The six year old girl fell off the bike and was caught in the rear wheels of the bus. She died instantly, police said. Moratuwa police are investigating. " Did I miss something? Why did they arrest the bus driver? He was trying to avoid hitting another vehicle and didn't know those people were back there. |

Re: Bus Reverses Killing Six Year Old Girl
he was making the bus move, he was the driver. who else is at fault. sometimes in my job a vehicle can not reverse with out a banksman http://www.healthandsafety-uk.net/banksman-training.asp the driver should have got his conductor out to make it a safe behind him |
