The Mad Bus Driver...

I met with an accident recently and i thought i would not ride bike for a short period of time and i ll travel more in bus plying through my route. A small van sized bus runs the service in my route. Its quite a convenience as i don t have to walk all the way up to the junction so that i can reach my office or the required destination in time. In the mean time i ll listen to the songs in my mobile phone while i m travelling in that bus. Its a pleasure to come back home in that small bus where there is less rush and i get to listen to music while inside the bus.

Everything was going smoothly till one day the cab began to run erratically and i could see the driver applying brakes unnecessarily and driving the cab at break neck speed. He was trying to overtake other buses at perilous speed. The older people in the bus were frightened and they began to throw tantrums on him and abusing him. But the driver is not showing any signs of stopping his antics. After a couple of journey in that bus i realized that the driver is indeed mad. One day even the bikers riding on the road stopped and foulmouthed him. His antics were such that even a saint would get up and slap him. That day i was indeed convinced that either the driver is insanely mad or he wants to commit suicide. I thought i should take suitable measures to get rid of this driver otherwise its like putting all the lives of the passengers in danger.

I was so disturbed that day that i could not concentrate on anything else. I met a traffic police and asked what should i do to file a complaint against this driver and he gave me a number. I suddenly called on to the number and said that the driver is either trying to commit suicide or he wants to kill all the passengers and that an accident can happen anytime while he is driving the bus. The fellow on the other side assured me that he will inform the concerned authorities to take precautionary measures. Guess what i have never seen the back of the driver again and all the travelers were relieved. I was also relieved to save all of them. But i hope it was just one of those horror moments inside that bus. Now i can travel very comfortably. The good old days are back...
