A Muni driver, who was suspended for three days after being videotaped texting while driving a bus, is no longer employed by the transit agency, MTA spokesman Paul Rose confirmed Friday.

Rose would not say whether or not the driver had been fired by the agency or left voluntarily.

"I can confirm that she was on duty yesterday, operating a vehicle," he said. "At this point in time, I can say she is no longer an employee of the SF MTA."

Rose said the MTA does not allow texting while driving under any circumstance.

"Texting while driving is prohibited by the agency -- it's against the law," he said. "We wanted to take immediate action once we found out."

Passenger Shawn Higgins recorded the one-minute clip of the Muni driver texting while at the wheel of a 24 Divisadero bus back in February.

In it, the operator is seen sending and receiving texts while driving a full bus along her route.

"All of our lives are in her hands, so at anytime we could wreck and all die," said Higgins.

Higgins told KTVU he confronted the driver. That was when she got irate with him, pulling the bus over at 15th and Castro Street and turning her camera phone on Higgins and his friend.

"She took out her iPhone and started recording us. On the bus. And saying 'I'm going to show you. I'll never pick you up again a--hole,'"
