I think Mehadrin buses are ok for the clientele they serve but…
I had a friend on a mehadrin bus, travelling with a male friend of hers. The ride was long and they wanted to talk, so they sat one seat behind each other near the dividing line. The people on the bus got very upset and part way through the ride, had them KICKED off the bus. They also called her really nasty names (like prutza and zona). I didnt realize Mehadrin meant that no one could converse nor that conversation made her a bad person.
Is talking to a member of the opposite gender not allowed on these buses?
Its a shame we cannot all get along…
