So what, who cares.
Yes, its a little strange and the driver deserves a stern warning. Its not like he ran through a red light or was drinking while driving.

was a rest brake.
their built into the routes (normally at a bus station). also normally no passenger's are on-board.

Everyone should have definately started shouting 'Our father, who art in heaven!' prayer and see if it disrupted his prayer time :p

get in teh drivers seat and drive the bus in circles... then he would have to keep turning to face what ever direction he was suposed to be facing

Two threads merged, it confused me too :)

Were both threads about the same incident? A quote a couple of pages back mentions 30k payout for a report last march but the link to the daily mail appears to be current.

Gayle Griffiths, 33, complained to Transport for London (TfL) about the incident on the number 24 bus in Gospel Oak, north London, last week.
 
if my family had been on the bus I may well ahve assumed a pending bang and at the very least tried to drag him off the bus, if not battered him in the process.... (assuming there was not a way for them to get off the bus without goign past him)

FFS will you post a link not the contents of today's email spam!

Your article is from February last year, it's not even the same guy.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2009/feb/26/sun-pays-damages-to-muslim-bus-driver


Also he was not dirty lying scum it was his break! the passengers aren't meant to be on the bus and he can do what he damn well likes in it.


Can whatever mod merged the threads please unmerge them?
"While it is the case that Raulynaitis did pray on the bus, he did so during his statutory rest break, as he is of course entitled to do. Not a single passenger was inconvenienced in any way. It transpires that an individual who noticed Raulynaitis at prayer chose to film this act on a mobile phone and sent the video to the Sun, which then reproduced stills from it alongside the article, as well as the footage itself on the Sun's website."

Hence why he could sue for being called a fanatic in the papers.



For the love of god people when you get chain letters at least ****ing check them out before reciting them like a retard.

What would you do?
You're on a bus with your family and suddenly out of the blue the bus stops, driver kneels down on the floor and starts praying.
What do you do, sit there and pussy out?

I don't mind admitting at that point I would have poo'd myself but at least I'd be trying to kick a window out and if that wasn't possible I'd be stamping on his head.

(of course the original story may be untrue but let's pretend it happened)

what makes you think the suicide bomber would give 5 mins notice before he detonates ?
 
This is crazy and definitely should not be happening, he should get a sack for this, can you imagine how passengers of the bus felt at that point.

Why should he get the sack for praying in his rest break? Just talk me through that, would you please?

No, but why would I bother? Their opinion is irrelevant. He was on his rest break; he can do what he likes.
 
Urggh so its not slightly true ? the recent Daily Fail one that is ? Another witch hunt ? Either way its only the peoples comments that make these threads so great.

Dmpoole is gonna commit GBH on some guy because he started to pray lol. Then vandalize a bus to escape :O
