Bus tragedy in Kingsgrove

Our thoughts go out to everyone impacted by the bus tragedy in Kingsgrove overnight, particularly the family of the two men whose lives were cut short.

While investigations are still ongoing, it is alleged that the driver of the bus caused a crash on Monday night that took the lives of two scooter riders.

This is a tragic and stark reminder of the dangers of using a mobile phone behind the wheel of any vehicle. The consequences, as we’ve seen in this horrific case, can be dire and go on to affect a great many people beyond those immediately involved.

On behalf of everyone here at the Bus and Tram Division of the RTBU NSW, our condolences go out to everyone impacted.
