I've encountered a Translink driver sleeping while driving. The driver wasn't totally sleeping, but dozing for a few seconds while driving with his eyes closed. He kept hitting the curb while driving, and the bus driver missed a lot of stops. About over a year later, I saw on the news that he hit a pedesterian and that was the end of it.
It looks like he is consulting his schedule or something, most of the video we see the bus not driving at all...
Here in Holland most busdrivers change the time on their stampmachines while driving, it's basically the same.
Even though it looks dangerous (instead when he would be actually reading the newspaper while driving fast...) busdrivers know what they can do or what they can't (or at least, that's what I think.)
this is definately somewhere in North America cuz its left hand drive and if u look out the from window u can see those yellow overhead traffic lights u dont get them in NI
All I did was shoot this guy with my mobile phone and post it. It was investigated and I met with the Translink folks on it as I missed the worst part of it. All I know is that the same driver no longer reads and drives and so I guess it worked. And yes it is a Translink driver.
You people think thats bad? I'm a train driver in New Zealand and I regularly fall asleep between stops in the mornings. Some mornings I don't let myself sit down I'm that tired! Thank god for the V.D alarm!
maybe hes lookin for a new job!

I have seen worse. Beside, the guy is reading while the traffic stops. In Vancouver, traffic always stops.
