according to the british "metro" report, a five-year-old american girl was left to sleep in a stuffy school bus by the driver. after waking up, she broke the window to save herself.the girl's father, mahtabul bhuiyan, told reporters that the driver picked up the girl from her home in queens, new york, and took her to school around 7 a.m. last thursday. but after arriving at the school, the driver did not check whether there were any students missing from the car, but went directly to do his own thing. when the girl woke up and found herself trapped in the car, she kicked a window with her hard-soled shoes, then walked up to a passing stranger and said she wanted to call her father. the kind-hearted person first called the police and then contacted bhuiyan. bhuiyan said, "the temperature outside was 27 degrees yesterday, and the windows of the car were still completely sealed. my daughter stayed there from 7 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., and she almost died."
the driver, named faruk, said he didn't know the girl was sitting in the back seat because she was sleeping. "yes, it's my fault and i take responsibility. sometimes i forget." bhuiyan said that on top of that, the student didn't go to class and the school didn't notify the parents. bhuiyan said: "my daughter was trapped in that van for three hours and she didn't lose consciousness. i'm proud of her, she's really brave. i can't imagine how she handled the situation."
afterwards, the school said, "we are deeply saddened by this unfortunate incident. the driver has been suspended. we have met with the girl's parents and will continue to support them." bhuiyan said his daughter was traumatized. "she was exhausted. she couldn't sleep and didn't eat anything." bhuiyan plans to hire a lawyer.just a few weeks ago, a daycare driver in florida was accused of leaving a 6-year-old girl to sleep on a hot bus. more than an hour later, the girl woke up and began to bang on the window, attracting the attention of a passerby. fortunately, she also survived.
