I said at the very start of this thread that I was posting about this incident against my better judgment.
This'll teach me a rastard lesson!
Not everyone by far, but it is pretty obvious some just have not read my posts properly, and have been more intent on taking the piss.
Have you ever tried talking to a brick wall TessA?
Well I obviously am so I will not use any more of my very valuable time trying to justify my actions that evening.
I don't have to do that with anyone here.
Bye!
You're okay. All the members on here are (except Tarantula who is plain weird
). You just go a bit OTT sometimes. No, ALL the time in fact. It's as if we can't breathe anymore. Your posts SHOUT at us.Otherwise, you're a great guy.
Eleanor Rigby would have been proud of you.How's that for a back-handed compliment?

When I first got on that bus the bus had NOT pulled away from the stop when I asked that driver to please ask that passenger to let me through to sit on that seat.
Or for him to move over so I could sit on the seat he was in, thereby blocking my way through.
Other passengers were still getting on the bus at the time.
The driver would not do anything about it, and told me to go sit somewhere else.
Which I did at first.
During the early part of the journey I went over and asked the guy who wouldn't move again to please move and let me sit down.
He then said O.K. and shifted while I sat on the window seat next to him.
It was only at the end of the journey and the bus was STOPPED that I asked the driver for his name, and he wouldn't give it to me.
I was STANDING UP when he closed the door and moved off from the stop I wanted to get off on.
It was only then I decided to video video what was going on.
And as for me trying to sit on his lap?
That would have turned the episode into a physical thing, and I was not about to do that.

The grievance was between you and the offending passenger, not the bus driver. His job is to drive his passengers safely, without any hassle to their destination. He is not paid to be a referee as well.
Anyway, what you after? A bit of compo?

Our buses have a sign telling you not to speak to the driver whilst the bus is in motion. If that bus had one you would definitely by in the wrong. Not a leg to stand on!
I am also surprised the driver didn't refuse to drive on.
