Well I've now heard from the bus company following my incident.
The drivers going to be disciplined for gross misconduct. I had quite a decent conversation with the head of the bus company on the phone and his inference was that the guy might lose his job.
I said to him I hope he actually doesn't get the sack everything being equal (unless he has done this before) and that it would actually be better for him to be given a warning and made to undergo training to modify his behaviour.
I guess he might get the sack but I suspect he is more likely to get a final written warning. if he end up being sacked I suspect he had done something like this before.
