I suppose that’s where I idly observe to her, while walking to the steps down to talk to the driver, that this is why you always carry some sort of proof of ID with you. She’d get the message.It's interesting because I may not have done the right thing. If the teenage girl was over 16 then the bus driver was in the right. If the girl was under 16 then she was in the right. I could have been party to a fraudulent claim.
I just wanted to get home.
If she was under 16, next time she’ll remember. 16 or older, don’t try to fake it (and have enough cash.)
I believe in showing some grace to young people and some others trying their wings inappropriately. I think we all have to notch up some stoopids before we mature.
