    Really? A bus you were on didn’t stop once in a 5-hour drive in your experience?

    My reason to think so is Occam’s Razor. Asshole passengers are much, much more probable than an official abruptly deciding to fire a bus conductor just because he stopped the bus for a Muslim’s prayers. It’s idiotic and only people who have never truly lived in India can make such assertions.

      That’s not what I said. I said the driver has discretion over where and when to stop during the drive. You’re the one claiming otherwise.

      So you pulled it out of your ass, got it. I love how you dispute the article on the basis of ‘it’s more probable’. Who cares about facts, eh?

      only people who have never truly lived in India can make such assertions.

      That’s funny, seeing as the article was written by Indians.
