They called Greyhound for help, but it took hours to get a new driver. They ended up spending the night on the bus.

If all that was needed was a driver, couldn't a passenger have done it?

How can anyone be locked in a bus, other than a prison bus?

Nobody could kick out a window?

Well if she walked off with the keys, the passengers couldn’t take the bus anywhere. They could certainly escape, but then where would they go? A roadside good samaritan might help one or two, but a busful? I’d be curious if they summoned the sheriff and what the sheriff suggested.

Mankind is doomed.

I remember my great grandmother’s story about her family making their way home through a blizzard in a horse drawn wagon. Her father had to break a path through the snow and lead the horses up 100 yards at a time.

What you are pointing out is just how passive we have become as a nation. The bus driver walks off? Sit passively in the bus and wait for someone to do something. Don’t take matters into your own hands. Sit there until someone saves you, then bitch and moan about how horrible the situation was. Its the new American Way.

So may questions so little time!

reminds me of the joke about the blonde who locked herself in her car...

If you don't have a CDL, you could be arrested.

The “Fasten Seatbelt” light was still on, what would you have them do?

I can never find Sandra Bullock when I need her.

Pasenger could not have started it. Greyhound builds in a special set of switches to allow pushbutton starter to engage. The driver needs to his certain dashboard buttons in a certain sequence to start the bus.
