FIRST bus service in Taunton has been reported to the Bus Appeals Body after a passenger travelling from the town was allegedly told to "Get off the ******* bus" by a driver.

Judy Davis, of Style Road, Wiveliscombe, uses the number 25 bus daily to travel to and from Taunton for work.

She moved to Wiveliscombe in January of last year to be in the country and chose the town because she heard it had a reliable bus service.

However, late or cancelled buses have become frequent leaving Judy, and other passengers, stranded and angry.

And the action of a bus driver was "the straw that broke the camel's back".
