Brisbane Bus Driver Found Guilty in CBD Crash That Killed Tia Cameron

The conviction follows footage prosecutors said showed no braking before the fatal CBD crash.

Overview

  • Magistrate Aaron Simpson found Lindsay Francis Selby guilty of driving without due care and attention causing death in the Brisbane Magistrates Court.
  • The court adjourned to reconvene later in the morning so the magistrate could deliver detailed reasons.
  • Prosecutors presented CCTV and internal bus-camera vision and argued the brakes were never engaged and Selby had ample opportunity to stop.
  • The defence said Selby believed he was braking, offering explanations that his foot slipped or became stuck.
  • Tia Cameron, 18, died on March 8, 2024, after the council bus turned from Ann Street into Edward Street, mounted the footpath at more than 20 km/h, and pinned her against the Anzac Square Arcade building.
