A Hong Kong franchised bus operator has suspended a driver after video footage surfaced online showing him operating a vehicle without either hand on the steering wheel.
The incident, which sparked widespread safety concerns on social media on Thursday, prompted KMB to launch an immediate investigation into the driver’s conduct.
In a 17-second clip filmed from an adjacent vehicle, the driver can be seen completely releasing his grip on the steering wheel while the bus is in motion, instead using his left hand to touch his right wrist and fingers.

“KMB is highly concerned about the incident and has immediately suspended the driver from duty and launched an investigation,” a KMB spokesman said.
