Default Buses that terminate short: procedure to be adopted

Now call me pedantic if you want, but why should I, as a passenger, be
taking responsibility for other passengers (some of whom were drunk)
and trying to convince a driver of another bus that people with whom I
have had nothing to do, and a group which by when may have been joined
by all sorts of other hangers-on, trying to hitch a free ride. that
none of us should have to pay?

Are not the rules that the driver/conductor of Â*a bus turning short
either has to enure (as the driver eventually did) that he has
communicated with the following bus so that the transferring
passengers do not have to pay twice, or give EACH passenger that asks
for it a transfer ticket?

Man, since the driver announced that the transfer was for everyone, you
should have let him drive off, and then held the transfer for ransom.
That is, you could have demanded 50p from everyone who wanted to use it,
and threatened to walk off with it if not everyone paid up.

Regards,
Tristan
