Information Sought Regarding Minibus Viral Video

The Bermuda Police Service (BPS) is aware of a video recording being circulated on social media, depicting what appear to be two minibuses being driven in a dangerous manner and at a high rate of speed.

Dangerous or reckless driving is unacceptable under any circumstance. However, the size of these vehicles and the manner in which they were being driven, created an increased risk of collision as well as the potential to cause serious injury or worse, to passengers and other road users.

The BPS takes these incidents seriously and we are investigating the matter. As part of our inquiries, we need to establish a timeline of when this footage was recorded.

We are asking that anyone who has information about this particular incident or anyone who may have information in regards to the details of the recording to make contact with police on 211 at the earliest opportunity.

In light of numerous recent complaints regarding minibuses, the BPS will be paying particular attention to the operation of minibuses and any offences will be dealt with accordingly.

The Bermuda Police Service will also liaise with the Transport Control Department regarding these matters.


All incidents are under investigation. Police are appealing to members of the public who have witnessed these incidents or may have information pertaining to them to contact their respective Police Station, Police Headquarters at 295-0011 or the confidential Crimestoppers Hotline on 1 (800) 623-8477.
