An excavator toppled from a prime mover at a bus stop along Sungei Kadut Avenue on Wednesday morning (Mar 20).

The 64-year-old driver of the prime mover is assisting with police investigations.

Fortunately, no one was injured.

"It seems that even standing or waiting at a bus stop can be unsafe as something like this can happen," said the Stomper.
