A 54-year-old woman is in a coma after falling onboard an SMRT bus
on Sunday night.
It is believed that Madam Ding Weibo fractured her skull after
hitting her head on a seat.
The bus driver had apparently applied the brakes
suddenly.
Madam Ding and her daughter had just boarded bus service No. 167 at
about 8pm at Orchard Road, near Heeren shopping centre, when the
driver jammed the brakes.
Both made a grab for the handrails, but the force of the brake
threw Madam Ding onto the floor.
She was sent unconscious to the Singapore General
Hospital.
Her daughter, Ding Xiao Sui, told Channel NewsAsia that Madam Ding
suffered internal bleeding, and had to have an
operation.
She is still in critical condition.
The family plans to lodge a complaint against the
driver.
Her daughter said: "I was so scared and panicked, I did not know
what to do. I kept calling for her, but there was no response. She
was fine in the afternoon, she was shopping, and now she is in this
state."
In a statement, SMRT said: "We are sorry the incident happened and
investigations are on-going. We will be in touch with the
family..."

HE WAS in the middle of a business meeting in China when he
received a phone call from his daughter.
She told her father, Mr You Bujia, a business man, that his wife,
Madam Ding Weibo, 55, a housewife, was in a coma after a horrific
accident on a bus on Sunday night. Her skull had been fractured and
she had bleeding in her brain.
The mother-daughter pair had boarded SMRT bus service 167 along
Orchard Road and were walking towards empty seats in the bus when
the driver suddenly stepped on the brakes, causing Madam Ding to be
thrown forward, her head hitting the side of a chair.
