Put in that position, Slack, I would turn off the engine, get a book out of my bag to read and calmly await the arrival of PC Plod. I've seen it done in London, not only for this reason but for numerous others.
It's amazing how such action concentrates the mind of the transgressor when his or her fellow passengers get the hump. It's unfortunate but sometimes some inconvenience is caused when the rules are being enforced. To succomb to such intransigence simply illustrates that if you defy the rules you'll get your own way.
Anyway the issue here is not the same. First Group have a "first come first served" policy and it's that which is subject to the challenge.

I have been in that position several times and that is exactly what I did on each occasion. Fortunately, I am 5'10" and weigh around 15 stone and have an evil look, when I'm not smiling. I was also known as a S.O.B. (stubborn old barsteward).
Unfortunately, you are also under pressure from your employers who want to know why you are not moving. By not moving you cannot be on time causing lost mileage. Lost mileage means lost money and quite horrendous fines from the Transport Authority and appealing against the fines almost impossible. Poor timetable keeping can lose you the route and affect future tenders.
Unfortunately, "first come, first served" is an unofficial policy for most Bus Company's.
I shall be interested in the results at the Court of Appeal and hope all results are in favour of the disabled users of public transport. I think this has been 'brewing' for some considerable time. We used to discuss this on many occasion in canteens/workplaces and especially on our regular BTEC courses.
