BEST driver had no electric bus experience, finds probe
Hindustan Times Ranchi|December 12, 2024
MUMBAI: Sanjay More, 54, the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) driver who was behind the wheel of the bus that rammed into 22 vehicles claiming seven lives and leaving 42 injured in Kurla West on Monday night, had received just three-day training before transitioning from driving a manual geared bus to a longer and automatic electric bus (e-bus), people familiar with the probe said on Tuesday.

More, booked for culpable homicide not amounting to murder over the accident, started driving the 12-metre-long Olectra-make e-bus—the longest in the BEST fleet—from December 1, before which he had driven a six-metre-long manual bus for four years, the people added.
