On 23 May 2026, a Go-Ahead Singapore bus captain was assaulted by a commuter while operating Bus Service 2.
At about 3.10pm, the commuter grew angry after his bus stop was missed and proceeded to verbally abuse and physically assault our bus captain while he was driving. Following the incident, the trip was disrupted and our bus captain subsequently sought medical attention at Changi General Hospital.
We are extending our full support to the affected bus captain, including assisting with the lodging of a police report and the necessary follow-up procedures.
Go-Ahead Singapore does not condone any form of abuse and violence against public transport workers. Such aggressive behaviour not only affects our staff but also compromises the safety of other commuters and road users.
Our bus captains carry out their duties every day with professionalism and care to ensure commuters reach their destinations safely. They deserve respect and should not have to endure abuse in the course of their work.
