Lost bus driver

Sounds like a typical public servent to me...
this reminds me of our mass transit service here in South Florida.

Bus driver: 'Does anyone know the way?'

Don't laugh too hard as this sounds too close for comfort

Bus passengers were shocked to be asked if any of them knew the way because the driver hadn't a clue.

They laughed when a supervisor asked if any of the 30 on board could give directions, reports the Mirror.

But then he added: "It will really help you as your driver is Polish, doesn't speak much English and he doesn't know the route."

no pollack jokes please

Travel firm Fraser Eagle was running a coach replacement service for Virgin Trains between Birmingham and Rugby because of track maintenance.

One woman volunteered to sit by the driver and give him directions throughout the 20-mile journey.

Passengers gave her a round of applause when the bus arrived in time for them to make their rail connections.

Stephen Beech, 38, said: "It was lucky there were a couple of local people on the bus and one of them gave the driver directions as he clearly didn't have a clue."

A Virgin Trains spokesman said: "They are investigating. We would expect the driver to know the route he is supposed to drive."
