If the bloke was on crutches, what on earth was he doing going upstairs?! Definitely not the most sensible thing in the world.

I wonder wether the lower deck was full and when the chap on crutches boarded no one got up and offered him a seat so was forced to go upstairs - I see it a lot especially when older frail passengers board. It's sadly a sign of the times.

From what I've read elsewhere the driver may have set off before the passenger had reached a seat.
