SBS bus driver fined $6000 for causing woman's death
SINGAPORE: An SBS bus driver has been fined $6,000 for a negligent act that resulted in the death of a 67-year-old pedestrian.
55-year-old Chung Nget Min, who had lost his job of 20 years, is now a security officer.
He has also been disqualified from operating all vehicles for four years.
Chung was driving bus service number 162 along Sin Ming Avenue towards Marymount Road at around 8.20pm on March 11 this year when he knocked into Roop Nanwani.
The court heard that he had failed to keep a proper lookout for Ms Roop who was crossing the road at that time.
She was sent to Tan Tock Seng Hospital but succumbed to head injuries on March 13.
Ms Roop was pronounced dead at around 4.30am that day.
For the negligent act, Chung could have been sentenced to up to two years' jail, fined or both. - CNA/jm
*sigh* bus drivers are the most pathetic ones though, pedestrians jaywalk get crushed to death, drivers gets booted, and licence revoked.

FLOOD AGAIN!
Flash floods in low—lying areas of S’pore receded
SINGAPORE: The Singapore Civil Defence Force says the flash floods at all affected areas have receded.
There were flash floods in several low—lying areas in Singapore as a result of heavy rain Saturday morning.
SCDF officers evacuated some 60 people in about 20 different locations islandwide.
They include Changi Road, Telok Kurau, Bukit Timah and Chai Chee.
Most of those who were evacuated had called the authorities for assistance as they were trapped in their vehicles due to the rising flood water.
Earlier, callers contacted the MediaCorp Hotline, saying several low—lying shop houses along Changi Road and Telok Kurau were flooded.
Floods were also reported along Braddell Road, Bukit Timah and Chai Chee.
At Upper Thomson Road, Singapore Civil Defence Officers helped evacuate 20 passengers stranded from inside an SBS bus due to the flooding.
Several passengers also had to be evacuated from another bus along Bukit Timah Road.
MediaCorp understands several drivers were also stranded in their vehicles until Civil Defence officers arrived.
One caller said a fallen tree along Dorset Road caused heavy traffic congestion.
PUB earlier said heavy showers with thunder and gusty winds were expected over many areas in Singapore between 6am and 7am on Saturday.

SBS 9292 R 89 was flooded with water during a downpour one afternoon in 2004. When the bus brakes the water flow to the front, and vice versa when accelerating. To top things off the aircon was superb!
