A mum from Kirkintilloch has hit out at First Bus after a driver refused to let her son on, despite having a valid Young Scot Card which entitles him to free travel.
Mandy Stewart was shocked when she received a call from her son Kyle, 12, who was making his way home from school. The upset boy told his mum that the driver had refused him entry to the number 89 bus, which was travelling along Baird Street.
The 34-year-old had put her son's card through the washing machine by mistake which meant it didn't scan, however, they had ordered another one and numerous other drivers had allowed Kyle on the bus.
