1moCurrently experiencing a disturbing situation on my FlixBus journey. The driver just tried to force me off the bus, demanding I take a train or cab instead, simply because I was talking on my phone. He even insisted I leave my phone on the front deck if I wanted to stay. This feels like outright discrimination, and I can’t ignore the racial bias in this treatment. Flix this is completely unacceptable – I expect you to address this behavior and ensure respectful treatment for all passengers. Please read - IMPORTANT
