Bizkaibus has condemned the incident and stated that "the intrusion ofa large animal, such as a donkey, into a public transport service vehicle is absolutely unacceptable, endangering the safety of users, drivers and the animal itself ".
In addition, the officials of the Service have informed the Ertzaintza of theincident, which may constitute a criminal or administrative sanction.
Bizkaibus leaders believe that this is "conduct that goes beyond internal infringement and can have legal consequences."
They have clarified that they do not accept this type of attitudebecause they "violate the rules of service and endanger the well-being and safety of all people."
According to the association with them, they have been given a video recorded last Saturday in Bakio, "where you can see a group of people forcibly shoving a donkey into the bus, supposedly to take it to Gaztelugatxe . "
The bus was outside the "regular stop" near a bar at 50 Grand Way in San Pelayo, they said.
The association has been informed that "the donkey belongs to a local farmer who takes it out every Saturday so that the gangs can have fun by entering the bars and then getting on the bus."
For this association, "it is regrettable thata has fun chasing, squeezing and mistreating an animal, and it is even more alarming that the driver of a public transport, paid for by the whole society, behaves like this. "
