Disagree here - I've definitely seen it on many an occasion, and one time, back when there were still bus conductors, witnessed a violent physical assault. None of which is to say that I don't agree vehemently with Brendan.

I agree with RosieH. And Brendan. And usually Bon3yard!

I've definitely witnessed lots of abuse heaped on (in these cases) an innocent driver. Given the hours, facilities at each end ofthe route, and general London traffic I'm amazed they don't go postal more often. Which isn't to excuse the behaviour outlined above but if the battles lines are strictly "Joe Public v Bus Drivers" I'm not sure I would fight exclusively for one side or t'other

I can honestly say I've never seen it and I use the buses often.

He is clearly a total idiot. My boyfriend has experiences this sort of behaviour on many occasions while on the 185 bus! Sounds like the same driver, Seems this man is a law on to himself. Hope your complaint makes a difference.
