Excellent move. It could have turned out badly but it didn't. You sound like such a courageous person. You know when to take a situation into your own hands. Bravo! As Bob would say, Bless you my friend.

Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
what a rabble rouser you were! i suppose it shouldn't surprise me really given the things you write about, but this is certainly an interesting insight into the life of a younger you.

One of the most exhilarating experiences of my life!
Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Wow~What a brave albeit scary thing you did, Liz. Yes, you did interfere, but with good cause. I believe since the driver got permission it would have been settled with no charges, but one will never know. I'm glad they were 'understanding.' I believe the weather extreme must have had something to do with the quick change of destination.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from robyn corum
Liz,
hahahaha Good for you. It would have been a silly, foolish day if that bus had passed up all you freezing folks to look for non-existent passengers. I commend this civil disobedience. (But don't tell anyone I said that.)
hahaha!

Comment from barbara.wilkey
That is ridiculous. Not what you did, but that it was over an hour and the correct bus had not arrived. Public transportation needs to be reliable. People need it to get to their jobs and appointments. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Good for you!!! That happens too many times here, and all the buses that pass are mostly EMPTY!! I can just imagine the judge looking at seven people sitting in front of him/her wondering what the hell to do with them all! I love this one, and was gobsmacked to read the fine in Hawaii! Glad you got your ride to Forest Hills! :)) Sandra xxx

Comment from Begin Again
Wow!
An insurrection unfolding before our eyes.... You accomplished your goal...but I imagine it was a good thing you weren't living in Hawaii...they might not have been so accomodating. ( The sub zero weather might have played in your favor too.)

Comment from Anne Johnston
Thanks so much for sharing that story. I am glad that you saw a need and took desperate measures to help others. Thankfully, the driver and his superiors saw the need and were willing to meet it as well.
