In the Maslak neighborhood of Sarıyer district in Istanbul, a "fare" dispute occurred on the minibus with license plate 34 M 1019, which operates the Pınar Mahallesi-Zincirlikuyu Metrobus line, around 09:00. The driver of the moving minibus reacted by stating that 20 people did not pay the 18 lira fare.

"IF YOU DON'T PAY YOUR FARE, I WON'T OPEN THE DOOR"

When no one extended their fare, the driver called out to the passengers again after a while, asking for the fare. The angry minibus driver finally closed the vehicle's doors and said that he would not let anyone off if the 20 people did not pay. The minibus driver reacted by saying, "You will pay this, I won't open the door otherwise, the dry will burn along with the wet. It's always the same symphony, it's not just 1-2 people, there are 35 people in the vehicle. People who sell their honor and dignity for 18 lira."

"YOU ARE DISGRACING YOURSELF FOR 18 LIRA"

Continuing to react to the non-payment of fares, the minibus driver said, "You will pay this, if you don't, I will go back with the loaded vehicle. I won't open the door, I'm telling you. I am serious, I do what I say. It's not just 1-2 people, it's 20 people. We can say goodbye to 5-10 people." After a while, some of the passengers on the minibus extended their fares. Upon this, the driver said, "When it comes to honesty, you talk. You are disgracing yourself for 18 lira. We are the fools. Look, how the money comes." and collected the fares.

"THEN DON'T DO THIS JOB"

Additionally, some passengers in the vehicle stated that they were late for work and requested the minibus doors to be opened. One of the passengers reacted to the driver by saying, "Then don't do this job, how can it be like this? I am seeing something like this for the first time." The events were captured second by second on the passengers' mobile phone cameras.
