A public bus veered off the road and plunged into a drain along Jalan Kelab Cinta Sayang near Taman Peruda in Sungai Petani on Thursday, leaving its driver with minor injuries.
Kuala Muda district police chief Assistant Commissioner Hanyan Ramlan said the accident occurred at approximately 12.49pm.
He said the incident involved a public bus that had apparently skidded off the road on its own.
There were no passengers on board at the time, with only the male driver inside the vehicle.
Hanyan said the driver sustained minor injuries and was reported to be in stable condition.
He added that no police report had been lodged over the accident as of Thursday.
Further details and a full report on the incident are expected to be released later, he said.
