To get off the bus in rural areas with no designated bus stops, ask the driver to find a safe place to stop. Passenger ResponsibilityWhen your bus is approaching your stop, make sure you are in clear view of the driver and use the "transit wave" to alert the driver that you are waiting for that bus. If the bus coming is not your bus, take a step back to signal to driver that you are not waiting for that bus. Have your fare ready when you get on the bus or display your entire monthly Pass to the driver. If you are eligible for discount fare, please display your ID. If you are using a Walkman or other portable music player, please ensure you are not disturbing other passengers by keeping the volume down. When darkness approaches, it becomes difficult for drivers to see people at bus stops, especially along unlit roads. Please take safety precautions by wearing light-coloured clothing, or clothing with reflective material. Lost and FoundIf you lose something on the bus, call Lost and Found at 604-938-0388.
