Warning- Ride Bus at Own Risk

By Ryley Burroughs

Brisbane bus drivers must have been dealt some vicious blows in their lives. For one human being to carry so much spite that they take delight in inflicting misery on a whole bus-full of commuters, they must have made some pretty unforgiveable high-school enemies. Taking up their jobs in a mission to get their revenge, bus drivers seemingly look for every possible chance to throw you off your seat, jumping on the breaks at the last possible moment and setting the benchmark for reckless driving in its finest.

I would be interested to get a hold of the job criteria for bus drivers, as it seems the role of their jobs is to frighten, frustrate and infuriate as many passengers as possible. Surely the employee of the week gold star must go to the bus driver who causes as much motion sickness as possible, doing whatever in their power to ensure you leave the bus feeling as if you’d just stepped off an Ekka show ride. Whether you’re on-board the bus or sharing the road with one, beware no-one is safe around Brisbane bus drivers!
