Driver Buses locked the students in the vehicle on Saturday who went to block the bridges in Novi Sad and did not let them go until the police arrived. They were only allowed to leave after pressure from people who had gathered around the bus.
"On Saturday, February 1, there was an incident involving the employees of our company. As a socially responsible company, we want to inform the public that the incident is the result of an individual's decision-making, and not the attitude of our company. The aforementioned incident was caused by a request for a group of passengers to leave outside the registered stop, which the driver refused in accordance with the law. After that, there was pressure from a part of the passengers, for which reason they called the police and wanted to continue the implementation of the line according to the established route and timetable. The driver acted according to the instructions of the MUP officers, who demanded that the vehicle, upon arrival in Novi Sad, wait for the patrol and not let the passengers off the bus, so that the people on the bus could be identified," the company announced.
As he writes, the driver did not inform his superiors or the on-call dispatch service about all this, but the company learned about the whole event from the media.
"Disciplinary proceedings will be initiated against those responsible and, if responsibility is established, they will be sanctioned according to our company's regulations," Severtrans announced.
