Brutal Bus Journeys - Ends 31st August

[MKR&*42]

As a student who goes to a college a few miles away, I'm very dependant upon public transport when travelling. I can see the benefits in buses over cars (they're cheaper and sometimes have designated lanes only buses can travel down to avoid traffic), but there are so many things about them that irritate me. Quite a lot of them have really outdated interiors and simply don't look appealing when you go onto them, not forgetting to mention the amount of leg room for a 6ft guy on some buses is unbearable. As for the public, those that think it's cool to blast music as loud as they can... it's not :@.

Enough of my rambling. Is there anything about bus journeys that really annoys you, if so what is it?! The most relatable will win.

So where I live, there's a bus where when you press on this yellow tape, it usually notifies the bus driver to stop the bus to stop for people to get off. Some people keep pressing the tape for no reason and no one gets off so whenever I ride the bus, I get home later =.=

that person who come and sits next to you even though there is a whole bus worth of seats

Having to move a newspaper from the seat everytime you want to sit down.

Reasons why buses annoy me:
Getting past someone when you are sitting next to the window and its not their stop,
Sitting next to a drunk man who is 'Barmy' and continues to tell you about his life and talks about football all the time,
When your sat next to someone blasting out music and all of a sudden Justin Bieber starts blasting out and they look at you surprised that they have Justin Bieber on there phone.
Not sitting next to the stop button and either have to ask someone to press it for you, or have to some how find a button,
People that carry on pressing the stop button when you're in a hurry or when ever.. Overall its just irritating.
Sticky floor, when someone has spilt their overly sugared energy drink on the floor and when you sit down your feet stick to the ground basically making you unable to move at all.
When the bus diver looks drunk himself and can hardly tell you what the price of the bus is and still questions if someone is allowed to have a child ticket or not...

My life story, done.

only thing that annoys me is when people leave empty coke cans and bottles on the floor, so when teh bus revs or slows down it rolls around everywhere and makes a noise !

[bkps]

when its hail and ride and you press it somewhere and the driver stops 10 mins later ;l

Well loads of buses I use have really outdated interiors and simply don't look appealing when you go on them, not forgetting to mention the amount of leg room for a 6ft guy on some buses is unbearable. I also hate people who come on the bus and blast out their music as loud as they can, it's not cool man, it's not cool. I have to put up with this on a daily basis because I'm a student.

I hope you can relate.

The most relatable will win.

When it's absolutely roasting on a bus and you open the windows but you only get the draft when the bus is moving at speed, and then someone idiot goes and shuts the window that's keeping you cool without even asking and the slam of the window also makes you jump out your skin!
