Bus driver hurt in rock attack

The Advertiser: Bus driver hurt in rock attack :

"Another insider said rocks thrown at buses happened two to three times a week in the southern suburbs alone.

'No one knows about it, they just bring them in and get repaired. It happens quite a lot at night when no one is on them,' he said. The victim of Friday's attack said he believed the rock was thrown by occupants of a passing car."

In the latest incident, the driver had to drive 10 km to the depot while he was injured and in shock. Rocks chucked at anything come as a shock. Who are these people who drive around in cars with ROCKS in them ready to hurl them at buses and anyone else they feel like ? We should know about it. It is always difficult to identify the cars and people because it is done at night time. Bus drivers can't put up with this. It's just not fair. We have to know about it because maybe we can keep an eye out if we live on the bus routes or if we are driving around them at likely times. Why would you drive around ready to hurl rocks? And why at bus drivers? Sick. Drivers need to wear helmets and even face guards. It's so hard.
