Croydon trams: 'Sleeping' driver footage probed [Sun]





Date: 18/11/2016

Footage appearing to show a tram driver nodding off at the controls on the same line where a crash killed seven people is being ^urgently investigated^.
The clip, apparently captured on a passenger^s mobile phone in April, was sent to the Sun newspaper.
It said the video had been recorded about three miles from the site of the 9 November derailment in Croydon, south London, which also injured 51.
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan said he was ^extremely concerned^ by the footage.
In the 30-second clip, a driver - who is not the same one who was involved in last week^s fatal crash - appears to drift in and out of sleep as the tram moves along.
He is seen apparently struggling to remain upright, and passengers can be heard expressing shock as the tram approaches the next stop.
