After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit his incompetence, the driver went to a near-by bus stop and offered everyone in the queue a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the mental hospital, telling staff that they were very excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies. It took the passengers three days to convince staff of their mental stability.
