Ever wondered why some bus seats seem to be unofficially reserved? A bus driver has lifted the lid on the unspoken rules of seating on public transport, and passengers are in for a surprise.
The Unwritten Rules of Bus Seating
According to the driver, certain seats are considered 'off-limits' unless absolutely necessary. For example, the front seats upstairs are often avoided unless the bus is full, as they can feel too exposed.
Where Not to Sit
- The seat directly behind the driver: Many passengers avoid this spot to give the driver privacy.
- The back row: Often seen as the 'rowdy' area, especially on night buses.
- Priority seats: Even when empty, some passengers avoid these unless they qualify for them.
Where to Sit for Maximum Comfort
- Middle of the bus: Offers a smoother ride compared to the front or back.
- Window seats upstairs: Great for views and avoiding aisle disturbances.
- Single seats: Ideal if you prefer not to share space.
These unwritten rules might explain why some seats remain empty even on busy buses. Next time you board, you'll know exactly where to sit—or avoid!
