Montreal public transit riders are wondering if an STM driver went too far after he kicked all the passengers off a bus when one rider allegedly raised their voice at the driver for missing a stop.
Video, captured by another passenger, shows the moment the STM driver stops the bus, gets off and argues with a passenger.
The man then tells everyone to get off the bus. The passengers seem confused and upset.
"I'm not moving. He needs to take us home," one person is heard saying.
When they try to get an explanation, he tells them it's due to a passenger that yelled at him.
"I'm just a bus driver. I get screamed at, I'm a bus driver. Thank you," he said on video.One by one, they are forced to leave, including an elderly passenger using a mobility device. The driver then takes off, leaving them by the side of road to wait for another bus.
The person who filmed the video asked to remain anonymous but asked CTV News to find out if drivers are allowed to instruct riders to get off the bus.
