JAKARTA: A Transjakarta driver's assistant, Risma, fell from a bus and broke his arm at the ASMI busway stop in East Jakarta on Wednesday morning.
"The driver was responsible for the accident," said Rene Nunumete, manager of Transjakarta operator, as quoted by Detik.com.
He added the operator was mulling a suitable penalty for the driver.
A passenger who witnessed the accident, Ira, said the bus was at the stop and Risma was standing in the open doorway. The driver then moved the bus forward without waiting for the doors to close.
Risma was caught between the door and the gap, breaking his arm. The passengers screamed and warned the driver, who immediately stopped the bus. He got off to check on Risma, who was later taken to a hospital nearby.
The driver told the passengers to get off and take another Transjakarta bus behind his. -JP
