The irony is that this is their job and it really isn't that hard to pick up commuters, let they pay for their ticket and allowing them to sit down and then go. Yet when it comes to the point when a driver has picked up all the commuters on a bus stop or bus stand and they start leaving the kerb, it id fair for the driver to take off if the commuter is say 20 to 15 metres away from the front of the bus. They run and run and miss the bus.
O.K. here comes the challenge -allowing time drivers to set down and the duration of completing the journey, is the driver correct in departing straight away and then ensuring bus journey reaches destination on time or stop the bus go through the fare paying stage and adding more time to the journey?
Compare it to trains - they rarely re-open doors unless some one's part of body is stuck on door - because they are running - maybe the same principal should be applied. Penny for your thoughts - feedback appreciated. This story was provide to me by a local commuter.
