The bus driver called the police on Rosa Parks because she refused to give up her seat to a white passenger, which was against the segregation laws in Montgomery, Alabama at the time. This act of civil disobedience by Parks sparked the Montgomery Bus Boycott and became an important moment in the Civil Rights Movement.

What did Rosa Parks husband call her?
Well, anecdotal evidence suggests that Rosa Parks husband often referred to her as his "boo." However, in his later years, Mr. Parks would call her "the bus lady" because he had severe Alzheimer's and couldn't always remember her name. He might not have been able to remember her name, but he could always remember that valiant act of bravery all those years ago. So, really, "the bus lady" was a term of endearment.
