Should I report this bus driver?

Well I have a hidden disability and basically sitting in a disabled seat and parking in the disabled spot with my placard is throwing it out there.

I tell people off all the time for being rude, give snarky comebacks and would totally shame a person for being terrible person and on top of that would not feel the slightest bit of anything about it. If a person wants to be awful I am not going to sit and take it in real life, if a person is being terrible to a disabled or vulnerable person then someone needs to tell them and I am ok with being that someone.

People have a right to be awful, this is true, but I am also well within my rights to inform them they are awful.

1. Having a disability (hidden or visable) doesn't provide permission or a "right" to be the one to TELL others of the behavior you find awful. In fact, that, in and of itself is pretty awful. Being intentionally "snarky" or glaring at, or shaming people is not in any way helping the situation. It is not tit for tat. It's not informative or educational or helpful.

2. Many busses have signage asking/telling people that certain seats are designated for handicapped and they could be asked to move. It doesn't indicate that there's any type of legal requirement and that if they are awful people they'll suffer awful consequences. I've had several experiences at resorts with multiple stops where there's guests on board and they won't expend the energy to move their feet out of the way of my scooter. So if my wheel attempts to meet their foot - I hope they then move it or it might cause some discomfort for them.

3. Going back to the original post - it's always good to report these incidents and I've done so several times over the years. While I don't get a detailed reply about what is or was being done, I do get a response that indicates to me that someone read my concerns.

so let me get this straight, I can't react to people in the real world but you and others who, according to yourselves, WOULD NOT correct or respond to a person actually in real life have the moral high ground correcting me here? How does that tricky u turn work exactly?

Some have got a whole lot of Thou shalt not gong on for people who really seem to be digging some I shall for themselves.
