I am still on this bus. Would be nice if driver gave status updates. Currently stuck in middle of nowhere, nice 16+ hour bus ride.

The drivers stop too long at the stops. They will say 15 minutes yet they stay there for 40 minutes. Also the noise on tge bus from passengers is ridiculous the drivers need to reiterate this when it's getting too loud
