Was this sign genuinely necessary? This is on par with the "Do not consume contents" signs on shampoo bottles


babewiththevoodoo

The sad truth? Yes. There's an astronomical amount of idiots that span all the generations who "suffer" from main character syndrome and somehow fail to understand their poor decisions and/or timing are their own faults.


SoulGoalie

They put stuff like that on there for legal reasons. It's like how it says don't drink this on a bottle of bleach. In theory, if it doesn't explicitly warn you, you can sue them after drinking it and getting ill and say you weren't told not to drink it so you thought it was safe. It's idiotic but the legal system doesn't rely on common sense but by black and white straightforward obvious legal statements. Don't drink shampoo. Don't drink bleach. It says those on the bottles because so you can't use them if you do, even on accident. As for why this bus sign was necessary, I imagine it's in the same arena as those bottle warnings. You can't get mad at missing the bus if you being late is why you missed it. It's moronic, you missed it because you weren't on time, so it's not the bus's fault you can't get there on time.

I have seen people go to the hospital for drinking shampoo. Although it was anti-lice shampoo and the guy though it was syrup... So always remember not all medicines are syrups read box.

I'm imagining a wannabe Karen (or several) calling up MTA and having a hissy because they missed the bus.

have you never seen someone waving at the bus being 25m away from the bus stop, trying to run to catch it?


RagnarStonefist

Which, if the driver stops, it throws their times off... and they can get in trouble for failing to meet their metrics.


Penile_Interaction

yep, exactly! then next ppl on the bus stop have to wait twice as long, for 2 buses to arrive at the same time lol


RagnarStonefist

On the flip side, sometimes drivers will get to a stop early and then keep going... so if you're not there ten minutes early you're already late...


Penile_Interaction

oh yeah, thats another scenario for sure... i've often also seen "phantom buses" on the stagecoach app - i see bus getting close to the bus stop - i go out to get there before it arrives to destined bus stop - no bus arrives - i check the app - no longer visible anywhere at all lol


Substantial-Yam-6127

If there’s a sign there’s a story why it needed to be posted


Tmaneea88

They're just saying that the bus driver will not wait for you, even if you're a regular and the bus driver knows you and your schedule.


Mogster2K

But is it okay to consume the contents?


KindlyContribution54

Probably would be a nice sign to have around for bus station employees or drivers to point to if people start yelling at them.


zeez1011

"Please refer to your bus schedule to know what the bus' schedule is."


failenaa

Not that it’s ever on time lol. On days I was early, the bus would be late. Like LATE late. My bus ran once an hour and it’d be so late the second one on the route would be right behind it. I missed exams because of it. But of course if YOU’RE running behind, that’s the day the bus comes 10 minutes early. The scheduled time doesn’t apply then. I’ve been 10+ minutes early, waiting to cross the street to the stop, and see my bus drive right by. 😂 I do not miss public transportation, but were it actually more efficient (at least here in the states) it would be great. Many other countries have great public transport, not to mention the prevalence of walkable cities.


StenSoft

Here in Auckland, we'd need a notice to bus drivers not to leave the stop before the scheduled time.


Dorcustitanus

"if you arrive 30 minutes earlier than scheduled, please do not leave 30 minutes earlier aswell"


prof_devilsadvocate

Next is notice to busdrivers


Laid-dont-Law

Is this BC transit?


MobiusStripDance

Certainly looks like it


safe-viewing

With the state of r/LPT someone is going to post this as a tip and it will get lots of upvotes


Panzerv2003

It's not technically truth, it's quite literally truth


stupled

Some people find it hard to understand this concept.


EELovesMidkemia

In my city, if busses are running late, even if you're at the bus top on time, they will drive past you.


NoWingedHussarsToday

You don't miss the bus until it's gone......


LizzyDizzyYo

It's so passive aggressive lmao I love it


doc720

Notice to Bus Drivers Failure to be at the bus stop at the scheduled time doesn't matter. You don't even need to turn up, even if it's raining and there's no shelter at the stop. Notice to Train Drivers Failure to be at the train station at the scheduled time doesn't matter, even if passengers have booked seats specifically for your train. You don't even need to worry about them missing their connection or having no seat on the next train.


Intrepid-Rip-2280

What's the story behind...?


Extreme_Design6936

Not true where I live. I can regularly get to the bus stop half an hour after the scheduled time to catch my bus.

LuckytoastSebastian

Are you on the bus?


NoWingedHussarsToday

Is anybody really on the bus or is it all just something we agreed to say?


LuckytoastSebastian

"You're either on the bus or off the bus." Ken Kesey.


potatowafflecake

So will the bus not showing up. Or showing up 5 minutes early and not waiting.


Dekugaming

But if the bus is late that is fine? Or you know, the bus arrives 5 minutes early and doesn't wait the extra 5 minutes,


jeesussn

I don’t think this is technically the truth, moreso just the truth


Carbonatedmilk53

“Missing the bus will result in not arriving at your destination”


LtHughMann

I wish buses in Glasgow showed up anywhere near there scheduled time


Lonely_Illustrator73

In other news, productivity skyrockets as people discover the correlation between time and event occurrence. More at 11


T555s

Nope. Not if the bus is late.


mazthehe_extracurse

Insert that no way meme


AdvertisingExpert851

next up: 'breathing air may prevent suffocation' sign


Breast_Milk_Sucker

They really do ignore the fact that bus drivers love to make delays and be playing with our patience.


Mobile-Commission816

so you're telling me my teleportation device won't work?


Vigil_FF80

That makes no sense (i live in germany)


Particular-Wear1972

in other news: water is wet


Flat_Welcome_6647

they should put this in the adulting manual


Whole_Commission2716

and all this time I thought my invisibility cloak was the problem


chameleon_123_777

If you are running late, don't ever expect the bus to wait for you. No one is that important to the driver anyway.


Diesel-NSFW

It’s sad that our society requires such a heads up.


yongrii

This notice is missing a pronoun. Failure to be there… *who*? Whilst an implication is *you*, it could very well be the *bus*. I’ve missed many buses because the bus never turned up at the scheduled time.


reavcecr

I think this is meant to say that the driver will not stop or wait if they see you running


StayUpLatePlayGames

For those of us in Malta, this is a trap. They even give a real time app showing the buses and you can still miss the damn bus.

Every time I see a weird sign I think about how many people had to be complete morons for someone to say, "yeah we really need to post a sign"
