The air conditioner in the bus is on cold mode, and the temperature outside was -6 degrees. I asked the driver politely to increase the temperature, which is why he started shouting in a bus full of passengers. Extremely offensive and unworthy behavior of the driver towards the passengers! He rudely abused me in a very ugly way, using words that are very offensive. I would never use this transport company again and I do not recommend it to anyone!
