Question 1134 in the bank

If a public bus driver runs out of tickets for a certain route – should he refuse driving a passenger who gets on the bus?

  1. It is forbidden to let that passenger on the bus.
  2. Correct answer: The driver must drive the passenger.
  3. The driver must only drive the passenger in road sections he has tickets for.
  4. The driver doesn’t have to drive that passenger.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The driver must drive the passenger.

A public bus driver must drive a passenger who has boarded the bus, even if the driver has run out of tickets for that route. A shortage of tickets is a problem for the driver and the operator, not for the passenger. So the driver also may not limit the ride to the road section for which they have tickets.
