An NT Worksafe investigation has found there had been numerous complaints in the bus industry about"bus rollaway" issuesBuslink NT is facing millions in penalties over the incident, which occurred outside a pub in Darwin's rural area on October 26, 2017.The 59-year-old employee was taking cruise ship passengers on a day trip when, during a scheduled lunch break, the bus began to roll forward.
The woman went back to the bus and tried to open the door to stop the vehicle, when she fell into its path.Paramedics were called but the woman was pronounced dead at the scene. A statement from NT WorkSafe said their investigation found that Buslink NT had failed to implement adequate control measures, despite numerous other safety reports within the industry regarding the issue.
Try taking a V/Line bus. Drivers are underpaid, overworked, treated like shit and the busses themselves often have a plethora of maintenance issues which never get addressed despite being constantly brought up by drivers and passengers.

Disgusting. Throw the book at him. Literally throw it at him numerous times. Creep.

I realise that the laughable SBS likes to act as the mouthpiece for the UN, but we, as a sovereign nation, are under no compulsion to take any notice whatsoever of the socialist parasites at the UN.

Former President of Chile from the Chilean Socialist Party. Say no more.....
