Bus driver plays game on the phone whilst driving on highway
A bus driver was caught on camera speeding on a highway and playing a game on his phone at the same time.
The bus was moving at a speed of 90 km/h and was carrying 50 passengers.
The incident occurred aboard a government-owned bus, which had left Lucknow for New Delhi on April 21.
The driver, Satendra Singh, was spotted by a few passengers playing Ludo on the Lucknow-Agra Expressway.
When a few of them protested that he was putting their lives at risk, Satendra allegedly got into an argument with them and stubbornly continued to play.
The bus conductor Vijay Kumar also came out in support of his colleague saying, Satendra Singh was an expert driver, who knew what he was doing.
A passenger Kartar Singh tweeted a photo of the ludo-addict bus driver giving details of the bus number (UP 70 0699) and the perilous journey.
A few others took videos of the incident and complained to the officials.
The Uttar Pradesh Road Transport Corporation has suspended the driver and conductor and ordered an inquiry into the incident.
