Bus scare as driver collapses at the wheel
PASSENGERS on a Shanghai bus rushed to apply the brakes and avert what could have been a serious accident when the driver suddenly fell unconscious.
The female driver is said to have fainted at around 9am yesterday when the bus, packed with passengers, was driving along Liutuan Road near Chuannanfeng Road in Fengxian District.
Seeing the driver slump motionless against the window, several passengers dashed forward to apply the brakes. Some passengers got off the bus and ran to a nearby police station to get help.
Two officers rushed back to the vehicle, with one unfastening the driver’s seat belt to help her to breathe while the other dealt with traffic at the crossroads.
Some minutes later, the driver regained consciousness and was taken to hospital for a checkup. Doctors at Fengcheng Hospital later said she was no longer in any danger.
Another bus was sent to take the passengers to their destinations.
