Knife threats and racial abuse all in a day’s work, say UK bus drivers | BBC News


Passengers, transport staff and bus drivers in the West Midlands, UK, say there is a growing national trend of antisocial behaviour on public transport.

One driver describes a "lawlessness" among some of the travelling public – mostly younger people – which he believes has got worse in 38 years of driving Birmingham’s bus routes.

The British Transport Police recorded 40,034 incidents of antisocial behaviour in 2024-25, an increase of 24% on the previous year.

Buses are the most commonly used form of public transport but they’re also where passengers feel least safe, according to a recent Transport for the North survey.
