My last time at the barber there was a talkative bus driver there getting a cut too. He said stuff like people shooting drugs or having sex on the bus is so common that it doesn't even affect him anymore, and passengers may think drivers are calous in being unmoved by passenger complaints but the reality is this stuff is so common that they're just not phased by it. He also said that he's in no position to really do anything about it and if the police aren't even going to stop someone from shooting drugs in public he's certainly not going to put himself at risk when he's just a guy whose job is just to drive the bus. That's a sentiment likely felt by many more than just bus drivers.
