Baby, You Can Ride My Bus
Korean buses aren’t the smoothest ride. But at least
the bus drivers in Busan are a lot more civilized than the bus drivers in
Seoul. Today for the first time I saw a bus driver kick off a passenger,
a young girl who was running back and forth. Her younger brother and grandmother
had to leave the bus, too. I’d never seen that in Seoul. However, the
bus rides from Ilsan to Seoul were much wilder than anything that I’ve
seen in Busan. Even though the geography is much more mountainous in Busan,
the buses don’t drive like rollercoaster operators. the road from Ilsan
to Seoul is very flat, but the buses range across three or four lanes, even
into on-coming traffic at high speed to get around each other.
