text: A New York City bus driver is facing possible termination after video emerged of him looking at papers and driving with his wrists and forearms. A woman who boarded the driver's bus in Ozone Park, Queens, recorded the unidentified driver marking a set of papers with a highlighter and  looking away from the road. She was 'shocked' that the driver's behavior continued the entire ten minutes she was on the bus, in which all the seats were full. A New York City bus driver running a route in Queens is facing possible termination after an unidentified commuter recorded him driving with papers in his hand . The driver was seen with both hands on a piece of paper, believed to be a timetable for his route replacing the closed section of a subway, and driving the bus with his wrists and forearms . The commuter who captured the distracted driving on a bus with only standing room said that the behavior occurred the entire time she was travelling . 'He jeopardized the lives of everyone on that bus and anyone on the street,' the commuter said. The papers in his hand were likely timetables used to make sure he was stopping at all the correct junctures on Saturday evening,  the New York Post reported, citing a transit source. The bus was being used to replace part of a subway line closed for maintenance during the weekend. New York's Metro Transportation Authority, which runs the city's buses, said that 'bus operators are expected to have their full attention on safe operations at all times'. The driver has been taken out of passenger service while the agency investigates, and could face possible penalties including termination or retraining depending on his work history, according to a New York Post source. New York City adopted new laws last year as part of an effort to eliminate traffic accidents, such as the February 2014 crash between an city bus and a truck that careened into a building on 7th Avenue . This weekend's video comes as New York City has targeted speeding and reckless motorists in a bid to eliminate traffic deaths . A  law pushed into law by Mayor Bill DeBlasio last August has increased penalties on drivers, including MTA employees, who hit pedestrians after failing to yield. Bus drivers have said they are under attack by the new regulations, and that accidents happen even when drivers are doing their jobs properly. At least nine pedestrians were killed by transportation authority buses last year, according to the New York Times.
