Analysis of fatigue among public bus driver in Kuantan

This study deals with the analysis of fatigue among public bus driver in Kuantan that becomes one of the concerned risk factors that could lead to accident involvement. The number of road accidents gains much attention through these years due to significant increase year after year. The other types...
