And those passengers who don't want to get off in the high street are
delayed because of you. How is that fair? And if they let you off they'll
have to let everyone off at whatever random place is convenient and then
the whole service breaks down.

I will admit that some bus drivers are jobsworths and will absolutely refuse to
open the doors even if stuck in traffic 10 metres from a stop which is just
being bloody minded for the sake of it, but if you're going to use a bus
you have to accept its not your personal transport.
