Man risks life to avoid paying hefty bus fine
Updated | By Poelano Malema
A man has been criticised after he risked his life by returning to a burning bus to tap off his bus ticket.
The last thing we expect anyone to be thinking about when the bus they are on goes on fire is tapping off their bus ticket, but that’s exactly what this one passenger in Australia's Sydney did.
The fearless passenger risked his life by going straight into a burning bus to "tap off" his Opal card to avoid the heavy fare that comes with not tapping off the card upon exit, Mashable reported.
A review of CCTV images from inside the bus reportedly show the passenger ignoring flames to jump back on to the bus to "tap off" his card.
Fortunately, he wasn’t injured, but we have to say, his behavior was rather risky.
See the burning bus below.
