There is a bus that has 29 stops. The bus pulls out of the station at 6 AM to go fourteen minutes to the first stop. Two people get on. You drive seven minutes to the second stop, but no one is there so you keep going. It is another nine minutes to the next stop where seven kids get on. The fourth stop is twelve minutes away, and three people get on. The fifth stop is six minutes down the route, and fourteen people get on, but four get off. the sixth through twelfth stops are cancelled due to road work, so no one gets on for those. the next stop that the bus can get to is forty three minutes after the last stop where people got on. The fourteenth stop is ten minutes and fourteen seconds later, where three old folks get on. A few of the kids that got on from the third stop are getting rowdy, so the driver asks them to quiet down, and then kicks one of them off the bus after they refuse to behave. This slows the route down so that the bus takes nineteen minutes to get to the next stop. There is one person at this stop, but they realize that this isn't the bus that they want, so they don't get on. This is where you turn down the side street, and go back toward the station, just two blocks south of where most of your route is. The sixteenth stop is twelve minutes away and crammed full of a large family of twelve tourists that are all excitedly speaking Dutch. They get on, and nine people get off. the seventeenth through twenty fifth stops are blocked off by the other side of the road construction. It is another fifty minutes toward the next stop the bus can reach, and several people irately inform the driver that they weren't notified of the lack of stops. So they all get off at the twenty sixth stop, threatening to complain to the company about the poor notification. eight minutes later, the bus pulls into the twenty seventh stop, and six people get off. twelve minutes later, the twelve Dutch tourists get off, while one person gets on. Finally, nineteen minutes later, the bus pulls into the bus station where three people get off to leave the bus empty save for the driver.
How long (rounding to the nearest minute) is the bus route? How many stops did it make? How many people got off at the twenty sixth stop? When is the bus driver's birthday?
3 hours, 41 minutes and 14 seconds (that's not counting how long it stands at a bus stop except if you calculated that into your times), 13 stops, 7,
december 13th cause I think you forgot to say that the reader is the bus driver
