I recently took the bus to a friend's place and on my way back (it was over the bridge - in Kukkola area), I had THE craziest driver ever.
The roads were really slippery but this driver was a speedy one.
After I paid and got back to the stroller (I brought my youngest with me), we shot off into the lane and the back doors were still open for awhile until he came to a red light and realized that "Well, I forgot to shut the back doors". Then we zoomed off again into the darkness....
Every single red light - if nobody was coming - we drove through, by the time the lights turned yellow (they turn yellow then green), the bus was already half-way through the intersection.
I was feeling slightly nauseous prior to getting to the downtown stop...
We get to the downtown stop and we're behind the 25K bus (I'm on the 18 or 18K) and a couple people managed to get on. One lady and her spouse didn't have smaller change so the bus driver was getting frustrated counting out the change to give them.
Then he shut the doors and we zipped off....
The problem with this? Well, there was still quite a long line up of people waiting in the freezing cold to get onto this bus! (And the bus was on time and not very full - so plenty of space for people to get on!)
I thought we were just pulling forward a little, because the 25K had left and he perhaps wanted to line himself up with the bus shelter, as many drivers tend to do.
Oh no... we zipped off and continued on our way!
The people outside were clearly ticked off and waving their arms and the people on the bus were confused too.
And nobody stopped the driver...
(I'm kind of wondering if he was drunk to be honest...)
By the time I got home, I was retching...he just drove too fast and took the corners too hard too....my husband wondered why I looked sick and when I told him all this - he just shook his head.
