As the vehicle pulls away, the girl desperately runs after it before collapsing. The minibus then appears to drive over her as she lies on the ground attempting to climb back inside. Now the driver at the centre of a viral Roodepoort scholar transport video has broken his silence, insisting he acted responsibly as chaos unfolded.
“I drove away and stopped to check if she didn’t get hurt.” The incident took place on Friday, March 6, in the Princess area at a scholar transport pick-up point known as Esibayeni in Roodepoort.

According to Maswanganyi, the confrontation began earlier that Friday morning when he allegedly spotted the learner drinking alcohol in the Roodepoort CBD while still wearing her school uniform. “I spotted the learner and told them (my friends) I am not going to surround myself around her as she was drinking while wearing school uniform,” he said.
