Getting off a Bus

I have heard Turkish people calling out something like "muside biarde" when they want to get off a Dolmus.  I have tried looking up a Turkish dictionary to see exactly which words they are using, but I have been unable to find this phrase.

 

Does anyone know the phrase which is being used?

 

Thank you for your assistance.

Took me a while to get my head round this one!   It is ´Müsait bir yerde´ and it means ´at a convenient place´.  As you know dolmuþes don´t tie themselves down to official stops!

I´ve heard people say things like: ´köþede inecek var´ (when they want to stop at the next corner) or just  ´inecek var´ (when they want to get out right away).

Allways works!

 If you are in a dolmuþ, u must warn the driver when u want to get off. you can say "inecek var", "Müsait bir yerde". But in buses it s enough to press button. you will see the light on the top of driver, written "Duracak". in tramway, doors are opened in every station.

Just a small addition:

It´s of nu use crying ´inecek var´ in trains and planes either. They will only stop at the next station or airport!!

That´s interesting, whenever I was on the dolmuþ in Didim recently I wondered how I could tell the driver when I needed to get off because I didn´t see any stops or signs on the roads. Luckily I never travelled alone, or I think I would have ended up back at the start! I´ll print out these sayings for future reference
