Aggressive tram driver forced his homeless passengers off the vehicle in Budapest – VIDEO
Change language:
On Budapest’s tram 19, the driver used a humiliating tone of voice when he forced homeless people off the vehicle. He behaved aggressively right away without showing any compassion.
Aggressive driver
As rtl.hu reported, a passenger captured on video as the driver of Tram 19 aggressively shooed away homeless people travelling on the tram towards Bécsi út. BKV (Budapesti Közlekedési Vállalat, Budapest Transport Company) is investigating the case on the basis of the video.
According to an eyewitness who spoke to rtl.hu, the driver of the tram, on its way to Bécsi út, immediately acted aggressively towards the victims without first asking them kindly to get off.
“Now get the hell out of here! You’re messing up the tram! I said, get down…!”,
shouted the driver.
He then grabbed one of the man’s bags and threw them off the vehicle. After he went back, he started yelling at them again.
“You think I’m stupid? Why are you messing around? You smell so bad I’m about to throw up!”,
he continued to humiliate the two homeless passengers.
BKV’s response
Rtl.hu contacted BKV in regard to the incident. The company responded that they had started an investigation on the matter based on the footage and would provide further information once they closed the case.
The other day on tram 4 in the afternoon there was a man lying in the middle of the aisle and drinking wine from a soda bottle. No one did anything. Sometimes it is necessary to call the authorities to prohibit this behavior. Maybe the driver reacted harshly in this case, but he is probably fed up with the increasing incidences of non-paying, unruly or otherwise offensive passengers. Civilized societies demand that some rules are necessarily followed.
Seen it several times, also on buses… Compassion is a sin in here apparently…
i think he was saying ,go get cleaned up . why should his bus smell like crap . hungary has done lots and yet i dont see any gratitude towards them . meanwhile they are going bankrupt on projects . i dont see anyone helping the hungarians . no gratitude is the real issue here . the driver was not yelling . stop the lies . dont put hungary down as they are helping a million for nothing in return . and no to guns passing through . we dont approve of killing people for land or money . its not the matriarch way . back off to all propagandists . we see you.
