the bus I was on smelled so terrible like old urine I'm unsure if the bathroom was not cleaned properly and the toilet needed to be emptied or if someone used the bathroom on themselves and no one decided to mom or ckean the bus afterwards. and the bus was extremely cold I had on jeans and a jacket and was freezing it was 59 degrees outside and the driver had the air on full blast
