Inhumane treatment from IBL Driver

Inhumane and ******** behaviour from bus driver-Kenny Tshabalala. This evening, 11.06.24, I boarder the 18:00pm Mokwena (Thaba Nchu)Bus, going through town and Thaba Nchu Police Station. At approximately 6:55 pm the bus passed through Senkie's Tarven, Trentyre,etc. As it approached my stop, i stood at the door waiting for the driver to open so I could get off but soo. I realised that wasn't in his plans. I realised He wasnting going to stop as He further drove towards the Stop sign. I request that he let me off, but He blatantly refused , saying "This isn't a Stop" ( No it wasnt, He had drove passed it) . I attempted to let him know that he had passed my stop ( I did this because its only been a couple of months since the in-side town routes have been approved, so thought he may hace not been aware) however with disregard to me, he drove off to the next stop which is about 550m away from The direction im supposed to go. He dropped me off near the Tbaba Nchu Police Station at 7pm. I had to walk all the way back to Monowick alone in this winter even. The most inhuman act in this unsafe RSA, to deliberately make a woman walk in the dark alone. I mean the is a reason why the routes have been established in the town section to curb risk of being mug, ****d or any other sort of assault, which has been the case in previous years. This bus driver Kenneth Tshabalala Subjected me to this risk , God forbid if something would have happened. I'm disappointed by the lack of Ununtu displayed by his employee. He striped me , a regular commuter of the IBL of my dignity.
