According to the driver, his superiors ordered him not to take any change
A public transport driver in Pernik took a 14-year-old girl off the bus because she wanted to pay with yellow pennies. The incident occurred on Wednesday evening and became clear after a clip on social networks. According to the driver of the van, his bosses ordered him not to take small coins.
“I told him I had no money left and I had to go home, but he said he didn’t care. He returned my money and left me, “said the child.
The girl ends up alone at the bus stop and calls a friend she was visiting. His father Valentin Bonev decided to ask the driver for an explanation and followed him to the last stop.
“I explained to him that it was money in circulation and he said he was forbidden to take it. While we were talking, it seemed to me that he had consumed alcohol,” the man said.
Valentin calls 112 and tries to contact the first Pernik police station, but without success. Not even a police team arrives on the spot – says the man. From the transport company they explained that there had never been an order with the money that could be paid and they assured that the driver had already been fired.
The company is already under investigation. Local authorities explained that they received signals on the same carrier on another occasion. The Ministry of the Interior – Pernik is also working on the case.
And Valentin invites all the citizens of Pernik to follow the example of the 14-year-old girl and pay for their tickets with yellow pennies.
