An Indian bus driver has been suspended – for letting a monkey “drive” his bus.
This is despite not one of the 30-or-so passengers on board the vehicle in southern Karnataka state complaining about their furry chauffeur.
However, when a video of the relaxed – and apparently competent – langur monkey taking the wheel went viral, the human driver’s employers took action.
The safety of passengers cannot be put at risk by “allowing a monkey on the steering” wheel, a spokesman said, reports BBC.
