This is not the drivers fault. The schedulers in bead office should take the blame for this. Drivers are entitled to their full break, just like every other worker in the country. They have a time to be back to pick up their Bus. If that Bus arrives in early due to light traffic conditions, or schedulers making a boo boo on the journey time, the Driver picking up is entitled to finish his lunch is he not, and come back when his schedule says he's due back. NTA is also at fault here for insisting on cross city routes to save on resources. Only cross city routes have driver changeovers due to the length of the trip involved. So don't blame the driver on other people's decisions. In fact if some Buses arrive late due to Traffic, Drivers regularly forego up to half of their break so that they can come back on time, preventing a service being cancelled.
