A female teacher surnamed Gao from Kaohsiung's Gushan District suffered rib and scapula fractures after falling due to a bus starting abruptly when she was boarding without having swiped her card, leading to 9 months of inability to work. Following the accident in 2022, the court ruled the driver and the bus company jointly liable to compensate her with 460,000 yuan, with the case open for appeal. Despite the company arguing having trained the driver to wait for passengers to stabilize before moving, the court held them accountable, stating that the training manual did not relieve them from responsibility.
