So how do u distinguish people actually riding on the bus? See below.
Nigerian lingo makes more sense
There’s no provision for that because no sane person is supposed to embark on a journey sitting at d top of a bus...

There is something called usage in language. That's what we are discussing here. Language evolves and usually the last to catch up is exam language, until textbooks are updated to reflect current usage
