The drivers of these buses in airports are often rash & not trained.

In this case, Jet needs to examine driver whether he was drunk on duty or hangover? Why did he loose control of low floor heavy engine bus with speed control?

The drivers attitude towards passenger is very bad. Jet Airways need to train tier drivers to be polite and improve their behavior.
