When I took the Megabus back from Houston two weeks ago, I was once again amazed at the behavior of some of the passengers. It was clear to see from the line of people waiting to board the bus that it would be crowded, and likely sold out. Yet people STILL kept their bags piled up on the seat next to them, obviously in an attempt to keep someone from sitting with them. Even when people were complaining to the driver that there were no seats remaining, passengers still acted like the seats were occupied. Only when the driver came down the aisle and said directly to someone, "Is that seat taken?" did they then remove their belongings. C'mon people. Have common courtesy. Why are you making your fellow passengers stress out and have to beg and search for a seat? Would you like to be treated that way? The seat next to you does not belong to you. You did not pay for that seat. And its rude to sit there and watch others struggle to find a seat. It also takes time away from getting on the road and reaching our destination on time. Some people have rides to meet or connecting buses to catch. Your behavior could be making problems for other people. But all you care about is not having someone sitting next to you. It is selfish behavior.
