At first the trip went smoothly, until suddenly the bus driver accidentally dropped the two girls off in Manukau, south Auckland.Confused because it turned out he didn’t get off at the Sky Tower, the atmosphere became more tense because it was already approaching evening.
The clock shows 7.30 pm local time.Briellen and Livy actually brought cellphones, but what could be done, the cellphone battery ran out after traveling on the bus for seven hours.
Fortunately, in the midst of this quite tense situation, the two girls still remembered their mother’s number.The mother, Erin Alberino, said that her two daughters had to borrow a stranger’s phone to contact her.
“They memorized my cell phone number carefully and called me to say they were lost and didn’t know what happened,” Erin said, as reported

Erin’s heart broke knowing that her two daughters had been dropped off in the middle of nowhere.This area is far from where they came from, being dropped suddenly in Manukau was like being lost in a foreign place for Briellen and Livy.
“So to be dropped off in an unknown place where they don’t know where they are. I’m very angry,” he regretted.
Even though it’s in an unknown place, fortunately there are still good people who want to help.Still the same person who lent them the cell phone, he also accompanied Briellen and Livy until things started to look safe, before finally entrusting the two sisters to the security guard.
After 50 minutes of waiting, the girls’ father finally came to pick them up.Meanwhile, Erin said that bus drivers should not be able to put minors off the bus if there are no parents/chaperones waiting or picking them up at the stop.
“It’s school holidays, and there will be lots of kids on those buses soon. Anything can happen, what if my girls are too shy to ask a stranger for help?”he protested.
After this incident, InterCity also felt concerned about this incident.An InterCity spokesperson said the safety of unaccompanied minors is their top priority.
“Our investigation is ongoing and will include reviewing the sequence of events that occurred during the booking and travel process,” an InterCity spokesperson said.
