Bus drivers not letting you on bus with scooter

[Alex.]

Anyone having a problem in Melbourne were bus drivers are saying you cant bring scooters on the bus unless it folds up?
They are saying after January 1 there's all these new rules and the ticket prices are going up as well, buses and trains in melbourne are fucked

 

[matr!]

In Tasmania bus prices are going up 10c per fare, but I have never encountered problems with them letting me take a scooter.

Fuck , I've even taken a bmx on a metro bus without problems before.

 

[Alex.]

i know, they have never cared before except for the random asian but in the last like 5 days they are all saying it

 

[matr!]

Just tell the driver to get a real job and step on. The can't stop you when they let old people use walking frames. Not being a cunt, it's a serious statement.

they tell me " fold it up"
i answer " sorry it can't fold up"
they usually think im being a smartass and dont believe me and because of that they sometimes not let me on the bus.
fuck them.

LOL I catch the bus to school with my scooter sometimes and the bus driver doesn't care.

I've never had a problem with taking my scooter on buses, but if a bus driver refused to let me on because i couldn't fold my scooter up i would just quickly take my bars out of my scs, and then if the bus driver still didn't let me then i would absolutely rage, lives would be lost.

This only happened to me once or twice, 98% of the time it was chill. But I skate now so no problamo.

And fuck ticket prices, back in my day it was $1.20 for a 2 hour concession.
Today? $1.80, smokes dicks.

in perth like 2 years ago they used to make you fold them but they dont care know and the prices went up 10 cents like half way during the year

It costs me $1.20 for a ten minute ride into town, yet I went from devonport to Queenstown (about 300km) for 90 cents. Thats nearly a 300 km difference, and it was cheaper? haha. Shit fucked up real bad.

It's a fair way, and all for 90 cents.

 

[Alex.]

They're gonna make it 2 bucks for a 2 hourly, and that's only zone 2
And yeah they've never really cared before its just in the last week or so, some bus drivers are saying I have to put it in the baggage thing
Might just get an elyts backapck

 

[matr!]

[matr!]

In Austria we are not allowed to get on with a scooter EXCEPT its a normal scooter and you "clap it" (Bad englisch is bad ). Hope you understand what i want to say^^

 

[Zaηe]

I understand.

 

[melvin]

hahaha austrian guy.

 

[Beckers1330]

I take my scooter on the bus all the time.
Never had a driver say no scooters on the bus.
If a driver made me take my bars off, i would beat the prick over the head with them, that would leave the "MP" stamp on his forehead.
