Bus Driver Safety E-PETITION

PUBLIC TRANSPORT FARE EVASION AND DRIVER ASSAULTS E-Petition ( Bus drivers requested me to table this e-petition as they are sick of abuse and fear they will be assaulted by unruly patrons.)

Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House the amount of fare evasion occurring on our public transport networks and assaults on frontline employees – in particular drivers.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to implement further measures to protect drivers from assaults, increase patrols, increase the amount of Senior Network Officers and strengthen laws to hold those who avoid paying fares on public transport accountable.
