Cap Cotentin bus driver was stabbed in Cherbourg (Manche). A first, in a context where verbal attacks are multiplying against Transdev – Cap Cotentin drivers and controllers. A new milestone has been reached.
Late afternoon, Tuesday August 2, 2022, in Équeurdreville-Hainneville (delegated municipality of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin) in the Manche department. A Transdev – Cap Cotentin bus runs in the Brécourt district.
Inside, a passenger lights a cigarette. The driver asks him to turn it off, the tone rises, the names of birds fuse, and as has become recurrent in recent months, the temperature rises in the vehicle.
The recalcitrant man refused and insulted the driver who decided to stop the bus and ask the passenger to leave. But the latter lost his temper, pulled out a knife and attacked the driver who was injured. “A lot of drivers and controllers have been attacked for some time,” we confirm at the reception of the company.
“ If nothing is done, we will apply our right of withdrawal at the start of the school year, summarizes one of his colleagues, sharing the exasperation. Moreover, if our two union representatives were not on vacation, it would already be done. In this new case, a suspect has been arrested.
