I have a gripe. Call me grumpy, but I find it annoying and rude when people get on the bus talking on their phones.
They wedge it between their chin and shoulder as they pay for their ticket, or dip their ticket in the machine, not even pausing in their conversation to acknowledge the driver. If I was the driver, this would make me chizzy. I'm not the driver, and I'm chizzy enough.
How important is your call that you can't say, 'can you hang on a minute, I'm just getting on the bus' and then communicate with the driver like a normal person? Is common courtesy too much to ask?

AMEN brother!
Maybe they need a 'common courtesy' APP?....
Maybe an app that made the phone explode if they used it at innappropriate moments
Ohhhhh....i like that one...a phone that would explode....i wholeheartedly agree!!
You'll have to come and live in Japan. It is an unspoken rule that you don't talk on your phone on the train. That doesn't mean that anyone communicates with each other, though. They all sit there texting or playing games or surfing the net on their phones. Failing that...sleeping! But there is lots of silence!
That's good- I am pro-silence.
