It shouldn’t have been only four years when he took a child’s life away.’ <\/p>\n<p>Bora said: ‘We don’t want anyone to suffer like we have. A bus knocks down one person ever month. <\/p>\n<p>‘TfL need to surrender to the facts.’ <\/p>\n<p>Lorna Murphy, TfL\u2019s Director of Buses, told Metro: ‘Our thoughts remain with the family of Ada Bicakci who was tragically killed in a bus collision last year.<\/p>\n<p>‘Following the incident, bus operator Arriva has completed a full investigation into what happened.<\/p>\n<p>‘We are now urgently reviewing their investigation to assure the root causes and appropriate corrective actions are being identified and implemented.<\/p>\n<p>‘We are committed to being open and transparent and the findings of Arriva’s investigation will be shared with all operators so that all necessary changes are put in place.’<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong><strong><strong>Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:webnews@metro.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\">webnews@metro.co.uk<\/a>.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>For more stories like this, <\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/news\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>check our news page<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<section id=\"share-buttons-bottom-start\" class=\"share-buttons share-buttons-bottom\"><a class=\"comment-now metro-button metro-comments-cta\" data-vars-position=\"bottom\" href=\"#metro-comments-container\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<span><title>Comment now<\/title><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"comment-now__label\">Comments<\/span><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{“@context”:”https:\/\/schema.org”,”@type”:”VideoObject”,”name”:”Metro.co.uk”,”duration”:”T5M53S”,”thumbnailUrl”:”https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2025\/07\/10\/16\/100194531-0-image-a-9_1752162995160.jpg”,”uploadDate”:”2025-07-10T16:42:01+0100″,”description”:”Ada Bicakci was cycling with her brother and father after a gymnastics class when Martin Asolo-Ogugua hit her whilst driving a London bus with cannabis in his system.”,”contentUrl”:”https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2025\/07\/11\/1187860839807172366\/480x270_MP4_1187860839807172366.mp4″,”height”:270,”width”:480} To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page window.addEventListener(‘metroVideo:relatedVideosCarouselLoaded’, function(data) { if (typeof(data.detail) === ‘undefined’ || typeof(data.detail.carousel) === ‘undefined’ || typeof(data.detail.carousel.el_) === ‘undefined’) { return; } var player = data.detail.carousel.el_; var container = player.closest(‘.metro-video-player’); var placeholder … <a href=\"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/2025\/07\/23\/a-bus-driver-killed-my-daughter-but-i-still-blame-myself-because-of-one-decision\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> “\u2018A bus driver killed my daughter but I still blame myself because of one decision\u2019”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":870,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cost-of-living"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=868"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/868\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":877,"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/868\/revisions\/877"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/870"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.airnetaccess.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
