A bus driver who is employed by the GoPasco County Public Transportation in New Port Richey Florida took a picture with his camera when he saw an alligator at the bus stop.
For obvious reasons the alligator was not allowed to get on board the bus.
What likely happened was that the bus driver contacted the authorities who sent employees of the Florida Fish And Wildlife Conservation Commission were able to come by where the alligator was located escorted the alligator to the nearby forest and away from hurting anyone.

Alligators are very dangerous to be around since they can kill humans with their jaws.

You have a good point there about alligators getting angry because of a misunderstanding.

There was no one waiting for the bus where the alligator was located.

That is wild looking alligator got stray into neighborhood.
It is weird enough it stops at the bus stop looking for transportation. It will scare anyone who wanted to drop off at the bus stop.

I know if I was a passenger aboard a bus and I saw an alligator at a bus stop, I would be scared as well.

I am in agreement with you that no one was hurt in this incident in Florida with the alligator at the bus stop which is odd to see an alligator at a bus stop.
