I've had a bus driver in North Yorkshire ask to borrow an OS map I had
in my pocket, and one ask if he had to call at all the little places on
the route, or could he just stick to the main road bypassing them.


The most memorable one I had was directing a Stagecoach bus driver
around Manchester Airport. Seemed to be a bad place for it; on
another occasion I encountered another Stagecoach bus stuck between
the old bus station shelters and a pole on the other side, having
tried to do a 3-point turn after entering the bus station on the wrong
side...
