The original submission notes: “Have you ever wondered why drivers wish to commit suicide, especially with buses. I am a part time bus driver and surprised at the beat the bus syndrome amongst many drivers, ie I am going to beat that bus even if it kills me. All I ask is that when irresponsible drivers with this syndrome wish to kill themselves, perhaps they would discover, prior to their suicide, if the driver is nearing their break time, or completing their shift. If soemone kills themselves, then it is approx 4 hours forme to complete the relevant paperwork. So please suicidal drivers have a thought for my break time.” Keeping this first-hand wording matters because it preserves how the event was experienced at the time of reporting.
