Bus Driver Elected to Local Board

from Christchurch News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The bus driver who heroically reversed his way out of a landslide-riddled road to save kids just got elected to the Banks Peninsula Community Board—representing Akaroa with a landslide victory of his own. After pulling off a daring rescue in July 2022 and even going back to fetch two stranded students, Jason Crew now brings that calm under pressure to local government, set to take the oath on July 13th.
