Here in Northern Ireland bus hijackings are relatively common. If you want to block a road during a riot then a great way to do it is to park a bus sideways and set it on fire. I've never heard of a driver putting up a fight against someone who was determined to take the bus.

There were at least 3 buses hijacked during the Brexit related riots of 2021, for example, while a quick search suggests there hasn't been a single incident in The Netherlands in almost 50 years.
