i don’t know classical music very well, but from the video i could tell that he was GOOD. still, when i’m in the metro i usually just like to get where i’m going, so i don’t think i would have stopped.

it does seem pretty stupid… they weren’t being disruptive. if they had brought a boom box and refused to leave, then fine, arrest them. the police seem a bit power hungry.

i guess that kid paid attention during the bus drills that happen a couple of times a year, because i don’t think i would have remembered to pull the emergency break during a real problem like this. and, once that didn’t work, i wouldn’t have ever thought to drive the bus into something to stop it. although, i’ve never had to think quickly in an emergency like this so i’m not sure how i would really react.
