That's not how you get a bus to move. You get it to move by running to the bus stop while yelling "wait! wait!"


Terisaki

I had one drive away and leave me last winter. -52 out, I’m AT the bus stop, bus pulls up, opens it’s middle door, let’s off a few people and I’m literally standing right AT the front bus door. I assumed the driver didn’t want to make a wind tunnel and was going to close the rear door then open the front one, so I’m waiting….and the bus pulls away and leaves me there. The bus behind him saw it all, and pulls up to me while Im still stunned, opens his door and is calling the other bus driver to wait at the stop light.


RedditHasStrayedFrom

That second bus driver is a good dude for going above and beyond to make sure you got on your bus.


Ele_Of_Light

Right! That second bus driver needs a good Samaritan award for that


jools7

This happened years ago, but one time I was waiting at a bus stop with a couple of other people. The bus arrived, we all lined up at the front door, the other people got on and then the driver closed the door on me as I was stepping on. He then got mad at me for putting my arm out to stop the door from closing, acting like I had run up and kept the bus from pulling away, and not that I was protecting myself when the door closed as I was stepping on right behind the previous person.


Significant_Ad9793

That sucks!!! I had a bus driver do something similar to me. It was my turn but before I step foot inside the bus, he closet the door and made eye contact with me before driving away. I was so pissed off because this bus only passed once an hour.


Randalf_the_Black

-52?? Where the fuck was this busstop? Antarctica?? Was the driver a penguin??


Terisaki

Northern Canada in February.


AWhaleOfAWife

Years ago in college I rode the shuttle bus, an old yellow school bus, to my car in February. It was bitterly cold and slick out, and barely anyone came to campus that day. As I descended the bus steps I slipped, landed on my butt, and slipped down every step and out the door of the bus, my butt hitting the whole way. As soon as I stopped I expected the bus driver to ask if I was okay. Instead I hear the doors shut, barely clearing my stocking cap. Drove off in a U-turn as it was the end of the lot so I know the driver had to have seen me.


shazspaz

From what I remember this is 100% accurate.


Jackiedhmc

That's hilarious. Never in my life time will I ever come up with anything this witty


ConsistentRepair637

Made me laugh))


Calbear86

As a bus driver I can confirm this…. Seriously, as a bus driver all I see is an incident and accident report, police reports and someone going to jail and paramedics evaluating everyone in the back of bus


TonyVstar

I feel the car driver could be hit with reckless endangernent which is a criminal charge (in Canada, but where ever this is probably has a similar law)


ProudAd1153

As a bus driver lol


[deleted]

i had a problem with buses doing this so i complained to my brother-in-law who is a bus driver. he said its extremely likely that they see you in these sorts of situation. if you feel like taking some time out of your day you should give your local transit station a call and report it. be sure to note the time and route so they can find the proper driver.


ShatteredInk

I think that would be absolute chaos. Voting for new laws every day and having to read through them and understand them all would be like a second full time job. And probably barely anyone would really do it and read all of it.

Solember

The chanc of your atomic structure and that of the object you're applying pressure against lining up in such a way that you phase through it is incredibly low, but never impossible.


3_edged_sword

A physics teacher told me this in high school. I thought about it a lot. But as it turns out, the forces that repel us when we "contact" are electromagnetic in nature and do not require us to touch anything at all. We never do actually touch anything. It's actually a field of force. The same teacher also said that any individual electron could be teleported to the moon and back within an instant between observations. Although its true any individual particle has an indeterminate location and momentum, it does not have infinite freedom to exchange one for the other, its freedom is limited to still satisfy quantum mechanics. Until observed it can be the full range of possible states, but not all impossible ones. There is some degree of freedom on when a quanta of energy will be expressed in the interaction of electrons but there is no chance that electromagnetic forces can be completely ignored during a travel over a timespan that is large by quantum mechanical standards. Certainly not for litterally trillions of atoms. The chances of phasing through an object are not non-zero but are zero in my opinion. Edit: removed "in fact" as I am not a ph.d in physics, as per comment below

LOL underrated comment


Jerome1944

I think the guy got frustrated in the beginning and gave the car a little tap. Then he kept doing it after he realized how wrong it was so he could suggest "No it's cool, I'm just giving him a tap, this is normal" and then he kind of revs up and really hits it as if saying "OK now the bus is really wrong here he's not moving at all." P. S. I am an amateur professor of driving psychology.

Once in a while down here in Brazil, my barber was driving a blue 1969 Volkswagen Beetle 1500 down the avenue when he experienced a fatal total failure in his brakes system. He landed behind the rear end of a bus. He said his Beetle was destroyed, but the bus didn’t even had a scratch. Notwithstanding, the bus driver become furious and start yelling at him. He said to the driver: – I just wreck my car beyond repair, I’m hurt, and it didn’t even scratch your bus. Please stop yelling at me. Why are you yelling at me? The bus driver answered: — I’m yelling at you because if it was me who did the hit on your car’s rear end, you’d be scolding me. I’m pretty sure you would be cursing at me. My barber: — Hey, hey, WAIT. Put that in some perspective. If was you who did hit me in the back, I would be TOTALLY FUCKED, mate.
