Toooooo many times that'd happened to me and many more of us. Too many times I've wanted to say that but just carried on. Finally.....too many idiots who use the buses too

To be fair someone may have been leaning on a stopping button without knowing, which is indeed annoying. For all we know the driver may have already given a warning a few times before this video was recorded, possibly leading to his 'rage' and defensive tone. I can understand the driver's frustration, however if he just yelled without giving a sensible warning beforehand then perhaps he could've been a little more considerate in this respect.

I think the stop buttons are positioned really badly on mk 2 Gemini 3's from what I experience - route 295 is my local bus. |

Pressing the bell a few times can be a passengers way of telling the driver to hurry up!

Pressing the bell a few times can be a passengers way of telling the driver to hurry up! With some drivers, that is the cue to switch the engine of and wait... |

With some drivers, that is the cue to switch the engine of and wait... and when they see their connection in front of you i just go slower unless they ask me nicely  [EDIT] Sometimes when someone presses the bell and then no one gets off i will sit at the stop for a bit to delay them for delaying me by stopping |

Don't blame drivers at all - working in retail, I know only too well how stupid and ignorant people can be.

"Stop ringing the bell or else I'll start the engine" isolate the bus and switch the lights off I guess, wont make a difference on a bright sunny day though. |

Not really a rage, I got the impression that he was just saying it loudly to make himself heard?  |
