Any bus drivers here guys?

Definitely not a hater thread. I know a bus driver on a Northside route who breezed past a gang of lads drinking cans at a bus stop.

He simply wished to avoid subjecting his passengers to serious anti-social behaviour. That's his story.

According to him there was a complaint and a disciplinary hearing. He no longer works as a driver.

I rarely get the bus. I've seen two serious incidents unfold in the last few months though.

Can any bus drivers explain to us what the story is with the bus service at the moment? Why is the driver shortage so acute? What are the conditions like on the routes?

Finally which route has the worst reputation at which time?

Stay safe...
