people react this way whenever it is something wierd, or that they hadnt thought of. It never occured to them before that they could be in danger on a bus, now that possibility exists in their world. Never mind the fact that it never happened before and will probably never happen again (*cough* 9/11 *cough*), the fact that it happened once now makes it something to be avoided or prepared for by most people.

Ah, the power of irrational fear...
