East New York Posted June 19, 2008 Share #1 Posted June 19, 2008 Passengers in lower Manhattan get annoyed with woman who won't get off Brooklyn Bound B39 or B51 untill NYPD shows up. Brooklyn and Manhattan B/O's are notorious for shutting a bus down if they want someone off! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=475c7ClxuSg&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOB2RTO Posted June 19, 2008 Share #6 Posted June 19, 2008 It has to be an emergency for me to call police. If I get an irate customer, I just drive slower, and make them more irate, or I will just get up out the seat, secure the bus, and inform them when they are finished (hooting, hollering, cursing, etc....), I'll move the bus. Only once did I call the police, that was because some drugged up, drunk, literally broke the back door. They were inside and banged on the back door so hard (for no reason other than nutjobness), that they broke the L bracket that holds the top of the door to the bus. That killed the interlock, so the bus was stuck........The mess that caused this (mess = person), was caught and arrested. I had to go down to the DA's office.....It never went to trail, as someone else paid for the damages that the mess caused (his "employer"). Found out the guy had a history of violence and substance abuse, but over the years he calmed down. This incident was minor, compared to what he served time for in the past........ This is why you don't want to break any TA rules as an employee, but one has to "be prepared" so they can get home at night...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broad St. Belle Posted June 20, 2008 Share #9 Posted June 20, 2008 I can't believe that woman was so stubborn that she stood there until the cops came. I have to admit that "Get off the bus it's hot" was hella funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why you don't want to break any TA rules as an employee, but one has to "be prepared" so they can get home at night...... A few months ago when my dad's friend who drives for Jackie G. but needed to make a special trip on the B6: there was a drunk woman. she paid the fare and than lounged and laid down on the front seats. my dad's friend yelled at her and she moved to the back of the bus. it was calm. until 86th st, when we leave the stop about half way on the intersection she started banging on the backdoor. she screamed and kicked the door while the bus was moving. then the bus came to a emergency stop because she kicked the door almost opened and the bus automatically stop. my dad's friend went back there and saw what happened. she had kicked the metal string loose and the broke loose the top of the door. soon the police came and arrested her. found out she had mental problems and was drunk.
