Overview
- Nathaniel, 12, was caught in a rear bus door in Wheelers Hill on March 16 and was dragged about 350 metres before the driver stopped.
- Ventura dismissed the driver Monday after an internal investigation and said it will review safety protocols and driver training.
- After the footage spread online Sunday, Victoria Police began enquiries and the Department of Transport opened a review.
- Premier Jacinta Allan asked the Transport Accident Commission to contact the family to explore further support.
- The boy is seeing a psychologist, and his mother says the rear door’s single middle sensor did not detect him and that TAC support is limited without physical injury.
