What to do if someone falls asleep on you on the bus?

If so, politely and gently wake them, inform them that they were sleeping on you, and ask if they can change position so as not to do so. If you don't feel uncomfortable, then let them sleep. In either case, do NOT attempt to move them or otherwise touch them except necessary to wake them.
