【Oxford Cloth Manufacturer】A week ago, at a bus stop in Ziyang City, Ms. Xiao and her daughter Xiao Zhou dropped off their 80-year-old mother. After getting on the No. 15 bus, I just got off the bus and was about to leave when I heard the bus driver calling the old lady to get off because no one was accompanying her on the bus. Helpless, Ms. Xiao had no choice but to help her mother off the bus in full view of the public.
Encountering such an embarrassing incident, Xiao Zhou felt very aggrieved, and then posted a post on a local forum to express his dissatisfaction, which attracted netizens to watch.
On January 6, Ziyang City Bus Transportation Corporation responded that the driver on duty did have a problem with a blunt attitude and had been punished accordingly; However, the old lady was not accompanied by her relatives and the bus driver refused to take her. The company understood this.
On the one hand, the driver is punished, but on the other hand, he understands his “refusal to ride” the elderly. Why is the bus company stuck in a dilemma? The company reluctantly said: Last year, many elderly people got lost after getting off their cars, and there are dozens of family claims cases every year. 【Textile】
Individuals cannot refuse public pension services and cannot shirk their responsibilities
A small bus refusal incident actually contains a rich public opinion texture. First of all, this is a lose-lose ending in which everyone complains and both parties feel inexplicably aggrieved.
From a legal perspective, when passengers buy a ticket and get on the bus, they have reached a commercial contract relationship. At least it is a contractual employment relationship that does not need to be specifically stated or agreed upon in daily life. As long as the passengers do not commit any special violations of laws or regulations or are extremely unreasonable, the carrier is obliged to perform its duties and complete the mission of safe delivery. 【Oxford cloth】
The old lady was refused transportation. At least in legal and moral terms, the driver was unreasonable. It is human nature and understandable for the old lady’s family to feel humiliated and discriminated against and to post angrily to express their grievances.
From the driver’s perspective, he actually has many difficulties. As he said, “In the car, the driver is understandably responsible for the safety of the passengers, but If the driver is still responsible after getting off the car, I would rather not take such a risk. Even if I am fined, it will happen again next time.”
Specific to this bus company, the previous efforts to recover compensation after an elderly person lost his way or had an accident were laborious and costly. The result is this kind of rejection with a “presumption of illness”, even if you know you are wrong, you still refuse to be justified. 【600D Oxford cloth】
An old man was rejected, or it was a matter of luck. As for the entire elderly group, if their daily life and elderly care dignity, including travel, are not protected by a systematic system, the tragedy of “rejection” will still happen – even if they know it is wrong. This is the basic business logic, and elderly care is obviously a public issue that requires public responsibility at the institutional level.
Travel is just a detail of life. It will be very costly to design a complicated policy plan for each specific and micro issue. But in the context of aging, at least in terms of public health insurance, In the field of social insurance such as pensions, relevant insurances such as medical insurance for the elderly should be separated separately, instead of being indistinguishable from other insurances for young adults, and should be more targeted to make them more effective and provide better protection.

If there is a more flexible system design and the funds are guaranteed by the government and insured persons with strong will, then When medical and nursing needs are effectively met, the overall living conditions of the elderly in their later years will be greatly improved. For example, in terms of travel, even if the family is occasionally free, there will be more diversified, humane and appropriate choices.
