Bus Driver Is Forced To Call 911 On A Little Boy After Looking At His Feet

You would assume the duties and encounters of a bus driver would be of the mundane variety. But bus driver Tim Watson had an experience that derailed his usual routine. When two unfamiliar passengers hopped on his bus, something didn't feel quite right to him. He had a gut feeling that told him to pay attention to his surroundings, as this would be a workday he — nor the two passengers — would ever forget.

The wheels on the bus

Northern California resident Tim Watson may have posed as your typical public bus driver, but in the end, he proved to be much more heroic than what his job title implied.

Regular riders

Tim's got his regulars, the people he makes daily small talk with on his familiar vehicle. Some became his dear friends. He was just a friendly guy with an ordinary job, and he expected nothing more than to drive people where they needed to go.

A man and a child

But, on what seemed like just another day on the job, Tim was maneuvering his scheduled bus route when a young man and a child walked on the bus together. Tim had never seen them before, but thought nothing of it at first... until the two sat down.

Treatment

While keeping his eyes on the road, Tim observed the somewhat-odd behaviors of the two. He assumed the man was in his mid-twenties, and noticed that he seemed strangely distracted. But it was how he treated the kid that worried Tim.
