Sonia Soneji, the user who shared the recording on TikTok, explained that the incident occurred last Saturday on Titsa’s 014 line, which connects Santa Cruz de Tenerife with San Cristóbal de La Laguna. The footage, which quickly garnered thousands of views, shows the individual positioning himself in front of the vehicle, forcing the driver to stop.
“"A man wouldn't let the bus pass if they didn't open the door for him."
The scene has triggered a wave of reactions on social media, ranging from disbelief to humor. Many internet users questioned why the driver did not open the door, while others suggested that the stop might have been out of service. One user, familiar with the area near the Teatro Guimerá, commented that “there is a sign explaining that the stop moves 50 meters ahead.”
The video has sparked an intense debate on TikTok about the functioning of public transport in Tenerife. Some users criticized the man’s attitude, urging him to “let people work.” However, others pointed out that similar situations are frequent, with comments like “sometimes they don’t even open the door when you’re at the stop,” while several reminded that drivers are prohibited from opening doors outside designated stops.
Beyond the controversy, the video has become one of the most viral contents of the moment in the Canary Islands, with comments reflecting surprise and curiosity about the outcome of the situation.
