Ride would’ve been good if the bus driver wasn’t making my fiancé feel uncomfortable with his words. He said to her “you aren’t joining me?” In a flirtatious manner. Highly disrespectful. I urge him to watch what he says

My rides with rider express are normally amazing however this time around there was a homeless person whom was aloud on the bus without a ticket Wich eventually during the trip caused a fight between another passenger as the homeless man was
Making inappropriate regards I am not sure why the man was allowed on the bus in the first place as this eventually ended in several delays and a physical altercation
