Sadly, I don't think this is a rare occurrence. Her phone was dead probably because she was sitting on the side of the road Facebooking until she saw a vehicle she recognized. Never thought about using a map. And the REALLY sad part is once she gets to Alexandria, she'll tell all of her friends that it was the bus drivers fault for leaving her behind and all of her friends will tell her she's lucky "that cop" didn't try to rape her. I seriously would have asked for her parents phone number and called them to let them know just how bad of a failure they are at parenting. They spoiled their princess to the point of complete stupidity.
No flaming here Marty. I think your assessment is spot on. If you look close in the picture below, you'll see today's society.
