Did any one recognize this rider as a regular? Was there a camera on this bus? If the rider is a current/former driver he's probably somewhat overweight and could use the exercise to walk or run two blocks. What was the look on the drivers face?

If the passenger had made a mistake and hurt or killed someone would you still have been glad? So because the driver made a meal stop, that was a good reason for a passenger to drive the bus himself?

But yes, he did actually drive the bus to the uptown station. I have no idea how he knew how to drive the bus, but I am glad he did. I probably wouldnt believe this story either.

The guy would have to know how to close the bus door (it won't move otherwise), put the bus in gear, and release the parking brake (neither of which work like a car). He's either a current/former driver or mechanic, really lucky, or you made this up. The trip to McDonald's is definitely believable though, I was on a 3 once where the driver hopped out at the dinkytown McDonald's and got a burger. Yeah, I’m calling bullshit on this one.

So Sam, did someone really drive the bus?...if so, that's pretty insane man.

The bus culture in the cities is sure different than Rochester. There's been times when I was riding the bus at night-the only passenger-and suggest we drive through the Subway or Burger King for dinner. I didn't know bus drivers could actually do that! Wow!

None of my fellow riders took the initiative to drive the bus, though. I do believe I rode this guy’s bus for quite some time when I lived on Hennepin last year.
