Bus driver loses job for allowing monkey drive passengers in India
October 6, 2018
A bus driver in India has landed himself in trouble for allowing a monkey take control of the steering wheel as he drove passengers to their destinations on Monday.
The driver, Prakash, was filmed with the monkey on his lap while driving a bus plying Davanagere to Bharamasagara.
Reports say the Karnataka State Road Transport Corporation (KSRTC) struck Prakash’s name off its roster after the video went viral.
A KSRTC official is quoted as saying: “The monkey came boarded the bus with its owner.
“But it went and plonked itself on the driver’s seat and refused to leave despite efforts by passengers to remove it from there.
“He (Prakash) is an animal lover, but he should not have allowed this while driving a bus.”
