Bus Driver's Quick Thinking Stops Suspected Drunk Driver

A city bus driver in Busan spotted a passenger car suspected of drunk driving, blocked its path with his bus, and handed the driver over to the police.

According to the Busan Bus Transportation Association, at around 11:20 PM on the 18th of last month, Song Jae-ho, who was driving No. 107 city bus on a road near an apartment complex in Jeonggwan-eup, Gijang-gun, Busan, noticed a passenger car weaving dangerously and failing to maintain its lane.

Song maneuvered his bus in front of the passenger car to force it to a stop.

He then got off the bus, checked the driver's condition, reported the incident to the police, and handed the driver over to the responding officers.

At the time, the bus passengers reportedly waited until the suspected drunk driver and the vehicle were handed over to the police.

Song previously spotted a vehicle suspected of drunk driving driving in the wrong direction last year, reporting it to the police and handing the driver over.

"I couldn't just ignore a dangerous vehicle that could threaten the safety of citizens," Song said.
