Also in regards to the passenger that got passed up on the J14 that operator may of had a full load before he got down to the south side of the route or they may of been doing drop offs only up until they got under 15 passengers. Dont shoot the messenger but quite a few operators have taken advantage of abusing every tool the authority has given them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
