Be Careful on Buses at Disney Too!

[NEV2OLD4DIS]

I am not sure where to post this where it will be viewed most, but just want to send out a warning to otherwise the most magical place on earth. Be aware of your surroundings at all times. We just came back from a wonderful 12 day trip. We stayed at CSR and used the buses the entire time. However, on our last night my DD-22 took a bus home from DTD and had a pervert rubbing his leg up against her and trying to rub his feet over hers. She inched over as much as she could and he would follow. This was facing passengers on the opposite side of the aisle and in the very front of the bus. The family on the opposite side saw it and let her sit with them when asked. The man of this family even asked the guy if he had a problem and the pervert covered his face. I don't think anyone alerted the bus driver, but my daughter went to the front desk and the cm didn't even really acknowledge it. She phoned her dad, and he went down and requested the authorities be called. Security came as well as the police and a report was taken. They will try to look at the security camera on the bus by the approximate arrival time to see if they can see him. He did not have a MB, and she believes he was between 60-70 years old. She said she could positively identify him if they showed her a picture, so we shall see if he ever is caught. I know this can happen anywhere, not just Disney, but just a warning that everything is not always magical when on vacation. Let your kids, grown ones too know that they need to be aware of their surrounding when away too! Be aware and stay safe! So happy she is safe, and she was glad to sit near Daddy on her final day!

Your daughter should have let the bus driver know, while she was being assaulted. It stinks that this happened, but keeping quiet just lets the jerk think he can get away with it.

Your daughter must have been very frightened...

Glad that she is okay! I think that I would have "inched" my way up to the front of the bus and report it to the bus driver!
If he followed me, I then would have said something out loud!
AWFUL experience for your daughter!

HOPE that many others see your post to raise general awareness that even though you are in Disney, BE AWARE because there are weird unbalanced people everywhere! THANKS FOR POSTING!

There are so many vile people on this planet that nothing surprises me these days. I hope they find the guy and put him away.

She does not wish to talk about it more, so I haven't asked why she didn't mention it to the bus driver. She was sitting right behind the bus driver when it happened. There is just a large hump about waist high and a wall that separated her from the driver. Those of you who have taken the buses will know what I am talking about. I wish she did speak up, but maybe in her head she was too scared, as she is shy. I am surprised the man of the family that she went to sit with didn't though. His wife was scared too after witnessing it. I am just glad she is fine too, and glad she was thinking about not getting off alone. I think panic took over and she just couldn't think to tell the bus driver.
