Why don't more people thank the bus driver....

When they get off the bus? I have no idea why but it really bugs me when they don't. Doesn't take much to just say thanks as you get off at your stop.

Edited as I know some people do thank them.

Being grateful to people was part of my upbringing. Saying 'please' and 'thank you' was drummed into us (sometimes almost literally), but I know it makes a positive difference to people doing a stressful job to receive some acknowledgement that they are appreciated.
