What should you do in the event of an aggressive behaviour of a passenger towards you or other passengers, making it difficult for you to drive?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
B. Stop the vehicle and call the relevant forces.
Explanation
In the photo, a crowd of passengers is getting on an articulated city bus at a stop. When a passenger behaves aggressively and makes driving difficult, you stop the vehicle and call the relevant services - answer B.
The Road Traffic Act requires the driver to exercise caution and to avoid actions that could cause danger, and you stop the vehicle only where it is safe. An aggressive passenger may grab the driver, hit someone or take your attention so much that you stop watching the road - driving on to a police station (answer A) puts everyone on the bus at risk. Doing nothing (answer C) is not an option either, because you are responsible for the safety of the people you carry. You stop in a safe place, open the doors so that others can move away, and call 112. You do not get into a scuffle, you just wait for the police.
