The behaviour of BMTC bus conductors and drivers is usually very rude towards the commuters. Especially the female commuters. They normally treat as if we are not human beings but a herd of sheep or cattle.
I daily use the BMTC bus to travel from BTM Layout to Electronic city and almost everyday, I see the same beahviour. It seems as if it gives them some kind of pleasure in doing so.
I would site today's case:-
The driver of BMTC bus No. 600 (KA-01 / FA-66) (Time ~ 9:15 AM), was behaving very rudely with the female passengers. Even though the bus was over crowded, he was asking them to push themselves behind. On top of that his driving was extremely rash with sudden breaks which was causing more panic.
Not only that when I told him not to behave like this (even though I dont know Kannada), he felt offensive and throughout my journey for next half-and- hr, he was making lewd, though not direct, jestures. The way he looked at me when the bus used ot stop was unbearable. Do they behave the same way with their daughters and sisters too...
I want immediate action to be taken against this particular bus driver. Because he deserves nothing good.
Its a request and if not taken seriously, and I see the same driver again anytime, I will keep submitting more complaints. So kindly take some action against him
The people are not only harrassed by auto-rickshaw drivers but also bus drivers and conductors.
They need to be taught how to behave with the passengers and esp ladies.
They should be given badges with name displayed so that in case of any such incidents, people can logde complain against that particular driver or conductor.
If action is taken against them a couple to times, they will themselves change their behaviour. But if the authority doesnt do anything then this menace will increase and we will continue getting harrassed.
