Bus driver calls police as mother tries to pay 25p of fare in pennies

Bit of a joke really, typical though. I'm 60 now so if I am unfortunate enough to actually need to take a bus no longer a problem. I can only speak about the experience of paying a bus fare in Aberdeen, no idea if this applies to the rest of the UK. If I did not in the past have the correct fare I have seen me pay over the odds because the ticket machine will not give change, robbing bastards was my first thought! So good on this lady :0)
