Was the cult or the fast driving really causing you any harm? Chances are the worst case scenario would have been the bus flipping and killing a few dozen cultists. You didn't like them anyway, and it wouldn't have been your problem.

Lastly, his boss may have had a rule against fast driving and tickets. But boss-man may have also paid him by the job vs by the hour, or told him "I need this bus back at the yard by {an unrealistic time}."
Again...someone not taking responsibility for their own actions that expects a free ride because times are tough. Life's tough...he shouldn't be driving like an idiot, breaking company policy. Rules aren't made to be broken...especially employment and safety rules.
