Clearly the lady needs help and support. Not for the bus driver to give.
It seems to me that the bus company needs to assess the situation and
instruct the driver.
The lady needs social and medical help in order to avoid the problem - this
is an uncommon situation!

A delicate one this.
One of our bus operators wants to exclude a lady from their buses because
she regularly wets the seat. I don't think they have approached the person
to
see if there is anything which they might do to ease the situation. Does
anyone have any suggestions which the bus operator could do before actually
excluding the passenger?
thanks
