Default Bus diversion due to closure of Battersea Bridge

Let me also make it clear that, in all things, as a human being I would
act as my CONSCIENCE dictated in any event and, if my bus was held up
in a traffic jam opposite a long queue of people, I personally could
not have failed to open the door to see if I could offer assistance. In
the unlikely event that this led to disciplinary action against me, I'd
be more than happy to fight my case and no Industrial Tribunal in the
country would (if it went that far) uphold a dismissal for such an act
of human decency.

You've got your head in the clouds. To keep down costs busses are only
insured on their approved routes and to pick someone up whilst off route
is against the law insurance wise. I wouldn't bet on your keeping
your job if anything went wrong, let alone not being prosecuted by the
police.
