Bus driver praised for travelling miles out of his way to help stranded Telford schoolboy, 11
A Shropshire bus driver has been praised for travelling miles out of his way to help a stranded schoolboy.
Codey, aged 11, from Dawley, got on the wrong bus from Telford's bus station on Tuesday, November 7.
The youngster didn't realise his mistake until he was nearly in Bridgnorth - at the wrong end of the journey.
His mum, Jodie Matthews, said the family have not long moved to the area, and are still finding their feet with public transport.
"[Codey] was supposed to get the 4.10pm bus home from school," Jodie explained.
"It's the first one that'll bring him home.
"When he messaged me saying he managed to get on an earlier one I immediately knew he'd got on the wrong bus."
