Share to: Comments welcome, I want to comment. When the police arrived, many passengers were still on the bus. The suspected car thief attempted to drive and hit the police officer but was shot by the officer's gun. So how to deal with such uncivilized passengers? Last night, a veteran bus driver named Master Zhang who has been driving buses for ten years was interviewed by the reporter. He said that he would encounter similar uncivilized passengers. Generally speaking, there are two scenarios: one is when the driver endures silently without making a sound, and the other is when they exchange insults with the passenger. The latter situation often involves young drivers, and there are no particularly good ways to deal with it. However, the first method is better. "I can only listen to him (her) scolding for a few sentences. How can I drive if I exchange insults with the other party? The more I respond, the more the other party scolds. If it doesn't work, just consider the other party as ignorant!" Master Zhang said.
When the police were conducting on-site inquiries and investigations, a man and woman quietly hailed a taxi and left the scene. After registering some information, the police consoled the driver. That bus driver then composed himself, returned to the bus, and continued driving away.
At 10:10 PM that evening, this bus departed from Lotus Bridge near Zhujian Road heading towards Nanpu Road in Pukou. According to the passengers on the bus, when the bus passed through Shuangmendong Hotel station, a man and a woman boarded the bus. It was the woman who swiped her monthly pass. At that time, the driver might have only heard one swipe, so he asked why there was only one swipe for two people, and suggested that another swipe should be made! As a result, the 30-year-old woman who had just boarded probably felt wronged, and told the driver that she had clearly swiped twice, not once, and began cursing at the driver. The driver was cursed at, and the two started arguing. Later, the driver stopped talking and drove normally without engaging with her. "The woman kept cursing louder and louder. From the moment she got on the bus, she kept insulting, saying things like 'what’s so great about being a broken-down driver, what’s so great about driving a bus' etc., non-stop until Siping Road Square," a passenger said. During this time, the woman also cursed with some harsh words. The driver probably couldn't endure it anymore, so he pulled over at Siping Road Square, turned off the key, and got out of the bus, disappearing somewhere while all the passengers were still inside.
Some passengers said that at the time, they thought the driver went to the restroom. Considering that it was difficult to transfer vehicles to Pukou at night, most of the passengers did not get off the bus but waited inside. They waited for more than 20 minutes before a middle-aged man noticed the situation and called the police. When the police arrived at the scene, the passengers on the bus were indignant and criticized the woman who had been cursing the driver, saying it was uncivilized behavior. Then, some passengers began to get off and transfer to other vehicles. After a while, the driver came back. He told the police that at the time, he saw the woman and her companion only swipe once when they boarded, so he reminded her to swipe again. She immediately cursed at him. After cursing a few times, she kept cursing. He really couldn't bear it anymore. Looking at the situation, if he didn't get off the bus, the woman would keep cursing. This would affect his mood while driving, and driving with emotions could affect safety. So he decided to get off the bus and adjust his emotions.

On the night before last, a bus traveling from downtown Nanjing to Pukou passed by Shuangmendong Hotel. A man and a woman boarded the bus. The driver only heard one card swipe, so he asked the female passenger why there was only one swipe and suggested that another swipe should be made. Unexpectedly, the woman believed she was wronged and cursed at the driver for two stops without stopping. Unable to endure it, the driver had to stop the bus, turn off the engine, and get off to "adjust his emotions." All the passengers had to wait for half an hour.
