Public Transport TraumaCompletely Underwhelmed writes, "I was on a bus the other day when a man got on wearing shorts, over what looked like greeny grey leggings. Then the stench hit me. The 'leggings' were a mass of open wounds, crusted with greenish solidified pus that flaked off in bits as he moved."
What's the worst public transport experience you've ever had?

Near death experience in a taxi...I remember the novelty of seeing people you knew from your school days, when we first started getting into nightclubs. I recall bumping into a couple of lads I recognised from the year above and was pleased when they acknowledged me in the taxi queue. They were real hard cases and often got expelled for fighting, so I was chuffed when we were all drunken mates together. Of course I'd share my cab with them, we were all going the same way. Then it all suddenly turned very sinister as soon as the driver hit the open road. One of them grabbed the poor guys neck and insisted he turn up the sound system full blast. Just as I thought things were getting a little bit out of hand, the other nutcase clamps his hands over the driver's eyes whilst shouting FASTER-LOUDER-FASTER right in his ear! I was sat in the front petrified, wondering whether or not it would be a good idea to grab the wheel and steer? But as I was off my face I just froze, thinking this is it, I'm going die in a taxi and nobody will survive to explain what really happened. But maybe that would have been for the best...
It turns out that the other nutter has his own barbers shop in town, gave that I wide berth too.
Scary, very scary.
