YOUNG WHEELCHAIR USER TOLD TO GET OFF BUS WITHOUT A RAMP!!


Christopher Browne(who has Cerebral Palsy) had to take a bus home from work and asked the Arriva bus driver if he could use the ramp to get on the bus in his wheelchair. The driver didn't put the ramp down instead he pulled the bus closer to the curb and told Christopher he could get on the bus like that. Christopher said this isn't the time that has happened it's happened with other bus companies. Christopher posted a video on Facebook explaining what had happened and has been viewed 45,000 times and liked 1,500 times.

This has happened to me, but to be honest its easy to get on/off the bus if the bus is near the kerb and lowered.
