Appalling Human Behaviour! The scoundrel...

I was on a bus yesterday and this guy got on. He was relatively smartly dressed and holding a brown paper bag that obviously contained some drink in it. There was this lady seated in the aisle seat of the bus and he pointed to her while half way down the corridor and shouted for her to move up!
Think she didn't notice he was drunk or ignored it because she went ahead and moved up the seat and he sat next to her. He then started hurling abuse and swearing at people on the bus and even tried to touch this lady next to him, trying to kiss her and she told him where to go. She tried to get off on the next stop and he wouldn't let her pass by him blocking her way! She pushed passed him and one of the girls tried to help her jump over him..
At the next stop, everyone on the lower deck of the bus where this guy was, got off. The lady was so upset and shouted and sweared at him before getting off.
Despite all this, the driver ignored and let more people get onto the bus at the next stop. I was appalled that the bus driver did not do anything about it, he is obviously tucked away safely behind his glass shield and trying not to interfere for fear of being abused and in his job, it is part of the job
More appalling is how in this day and age and this so called civilised society people like that get away with picking on innocent people and attacking and violating innocent women
Everyone else is too scared to react for fear of being attacked these days, with all the stabbings and the like that go on and a shame society is going downhill.
The new mayor of London stopped drinks from being consumed on public transport but obviously a lot more needs to be done!

WOW. This absoultey crazy. And shame on the bus driver. It's partly his responsibility to make sure that his bus was safe. And at the VERY least he could have called the authorities on this guy who OBVIOUSLY needed a huge wakeup call. Im sorry to hear about your ordeal on the bus. But I guess it makes for an interesting story.
