Looked it up:

I bet they'd be even happier if the schoolkids were left to just roam down the streets themselves.
or thousands of moms and dads in cars

@karl724223 - are these wee beasties any good, or much different from the 11 reg or the proper NXWM 14 reg ones - I don't travel on West Midlands ones but some of Go Ahead London's 61 reg are appalling rattle traps (and they don't have a coin vault) - the driver's door and bus door/ramp area being especially noisy, others and especially 65 reg are actually quite smooth and pleasant - the short wheelbase seems to accentuate either non smooth driving style or non smooth mechanicals (especially transmission and suspension) - in lay mans terms, would I get a nice kip on one after a skinful of Bathams, now the pubs are back open, or would I be in danger of vomiting with motion sickness 😁
i find with the baby 7xx the state of the roads make them buses a lot worse than what they are
Some of our 7xx buses are like little go carts how fast they go

And the driver. Unless told otherwise the driver has a free choice between the Expessway and Heartlands Parkway
also kids off school so less traffic on the road moms on school runs
