I did this as a bus driver. Homeless people would fall asleep and not wake up. We weren't allowed to touch them. So I would go outside the bus and smack the window. 99% of the time the jumped up.
If you're talking about the end of the day and you need everyone off the bus, ignore this post.
However, if you're talking about regular day operation and you're trying to remove someone from the bus who is doing no harm, then you're an asshole. They have it hard enough already, leave them alone.
So the driver should just go to the depot, lock the bus up at night with the person fast asleep inside? At some point, paying passengers have to leave the bus.
You are right, I hadn't considered the end-of-day scenario where you want everyone off the bus. I assumed the scenario was regular everyday operation and the driver wanted to remove an “undesirable” from the bus. I will edit my post.
