    Is this break well-deserved? Bus driver's sudden turn sparks debate among commuters

    They have "timed" stops. I'm sure a bus wouldn't be that far ahead of time. Maybe he was desperate for a toilet and embarrassed to say that. Why doesn't he make some flasks of coffee and take them to work with him.

    I only got one because my Mum had to go to hospital a few times. When I left the staff would ask if they could contact me if they needed to. My response was when I get home. That happened a few times before I got one. Initially I only used it for emergencies. I still don't use it much.
