We all need to commute from one point to the other for certain reasons and in doing so, we would need different types of transport media and vehicles, to help us get there.
My worse experience with a transportation vehicle happened to me with the most common transport medium which is land transport.
That fateful day, I was on my way back home from work at about 4:30pm. I was walking to the motor park to board the usual vehicle (danfo bus) that I regularly patronize but for some curious reasons tht day, I decided to be adventurous.
I decided to board a different bus popularly called "molue" which was a forty-four passenger bus as compared to my regular sixteen passenger bus. My thoughts were to experience a new ride but how wrong I was. Not only did they cramp us up like sardines, the bus driver and conductor still took in more passengers for standing.
We were eighty-eight already seated while there were about some forty something persons still standing. The standing passengers blocked the flow of air and I was just so uncomfortable.
The hands of some standing passengers hit my head from time to time, whenever the bus encountered a pot-hole. I was so angry that I wanted to tear the conductor to pieces but I settled for loud hissing and sighs as a good child😜.
The bus conductor still collected the same transport fare from all the passengers irrespective of whether they were seated or standing. What a disgusting service! After that day, I promised myself never to take such transports again.
For my best experience with a transportation vehicle, I can clearly recall that it was with water transport. My aunt had taken me along with her for a visit and she decided to beat traffic and opted for speed boat ride. We took the ferry from Mike 2 area to Victoria Island.
I confess that I was scared silly because of my fear of water but my aunt's confidence gave me a boost plus I didn't actually look down as the boat moved or else I would have become "fish food".
The boat ride was hassle free and in only a few minutes, we arrived at the designated ferry point. My aunt and I came down from the boat and we headed to where she was going. The boat ride was the best for me so far as there was no traffic encountered, no overloading of passengers and of course no smell of smoke fumes. Despite the enjoyable ride, I still prayed deeply that she wouldn't ask me to join her for another boat ride home 😂😂.
The boat ride was fun, now that I think about it but my phobia for water is still there.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I hate this kind of thing ehn. It's at that time I would be blaming myself and saying, "if not that I don't have enough on me, where is uber that I can't take?" 😄😄😄
Those experiences are annoying 😑
I haven't taken danfo before and I always avoid it because of the stories like this surrounding it. And the worst part is that these drivers and conductors still wouldn't charge you less after taking more than the number of passengers that supposed to fill the bus. Greediness of the highest level.
My dear you can say that again o. As long as one does not have his or her car, then one can be subjected to so many of this nonsense.
Thanks for reading and leaving a comment.
I can't imagine myself boarding molue for anything in the world. I dey craze? 🤣
🤣🤣🤣 my dear na adventure push me o
Well done, Adventurous Becky
😂😂😂
Boat ride is fun and fast I have experienced it a lot.
Yes it is true. Thanks
All these commercial transit that will be squeezing people like fish in carton, not minding whether you are comfortable or not as long as they collect their money
My dear I say ehn, their wickedness is on another level.
Thanks
😅😂😂😂
They pressed you people like sardines.
Ewo chimo, that made me laugh hard oo
Adventurous woman see things and things 😂😂😂
Sorry ma'am
I haven't used any other transport other than land.
I am afraid of water transportation oo
Glad you enjoyed your boat ride.
Yeah the boat ride was fun but I still fear water Sha 😂😂
Thank you
😂😂😂
Okay oo
At least you went and nothing happened
Yep because God was with me 😁
He is always with you 😁
Yes oo
Thanks
You are welcome
Can't imagine that situation. A bus meant for fourty-four persons ended up carrying about a hundred. You guys were sandwiched 😄
Would love to try that water transport. Many always complain about that phobia for water. Would like to test mine.
The phobia for water is real o bro. It's not child's play but after the ride, you yearn or more 😁
Wow. Let me try it too 😁
Seriously? So you yearn for more?
Yes you will 😜😁
