Locals alleged that the Smart City EV buses operate without conductors, forcing drivers to collect tickets while driving, which they claim poses a serious safety risk.
Authorities are expected to examine CCTV footage from the area to determine the cause of the accident and whether driver distraction played a role.
Commuters have urged the transport department to review safety protocols and staffing on Smart City buses to prevent similar incidents in the future.
