What should a bus driver do if a passenger is being disruptive during the journey?

A bus driver has a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of all passengers on board. If a passenger is being disruptive, pulling over and asking them to leave is an appropriate response. This action helps maintain order on the bus and minimizes the potential for further disturbances that could distract the driver or lead to dangerous situations. By addressing the disruptive behavior promptly, the driver can ensure a safe and calm environment for the other passengers.

Additionally, this approach allows the driver to manage the situation effectively without escalating any tensions. Ignoring the behavior could lead to it getting worse and potentially jeopardize the safety of everyone on the bus. Waiting until the end of the route or contacting authorities immediately may not be the best immediate solutions, as they do not address the disturbance in the moment, which could result in a more serious issue developing.
