I met a man in an electrified wheelchair on the Welcome Bay bus, who informed me that someone had written to the papers, complaining about the rude Hopper Bus drivers.
He said he's never come across a bad one yet. I agreed. I have lived in Tauranga since 1990 and have no transport of my own, have always used the buses. I'd like to say a thank you to the driver who waited for me, whilst I tried to run from just past the Landscape Gardeners on 15th Avenue to where he waited at the Burrows Street bus shelter for me.
So thank you to all Hopper Bus drivers, and keep up the good works.
Mary Smith, Tauranga.
