Police called after mum with buggy 'screamed at' and accused of jumping bus queue

A mum has claimed she was "screamed" at and sworn at after she tried getting on her bus at an earlier stop than usual, so that she'd have room to bring her buggy onboard before the bus was filled with other parents. The woman said she went to pick up her child from a child minder, but arrived at a bus stop to see two women also waiting with buggies.

She said on Mumsnet: "Knowing that the driver wouldn’t let three of us on, I walked round the corner to the previous stop and got on there. When it arrived at the next stop, sure enough only one mum was allowed on - the other was told to wait 30 minutes for the next bus."

At this point, though, the mum says said things turned nasty. She claims to have been "screamed at and called a c**t and a queue jumper" for tactically getting on the bus early, and said that one mum tried to shove her off the bus.
