As a bus driver, if I have a bad day at work I look in the saloon  mirror and quietly mumble "you are all arse holes," then tap my brakes twice do they all nod

The former 558 was an old tram route

Are the £1 child add on tickets valid with the £11 weekly?
Could notices be put on running boards to notify drivers?

I think hospitals should be a major bus interchange that have a DIRECT service to all the catchment area. People do not really want to be on local routes or changing services when they have appoitments or want to visit friends or family.

I agree that benches are more comfortable and I think the hard back was more vandle proof than the plastic although they could be popped out and slung out the Windows. A plain steel bench would do the job. Be a bit heavy tho!!

To work on a bad run you need to be able to switch off. It should not be allowed really to have scum like that. I can remember the old Wolverhampton starter rota, 598, 698, 511 all good for broken windows and idiots. 641, 574 and a treat on 504/5 and 126. 79 on sundays or overtime.

I think the driver could get into trouble as he held bus up. But in my opinion it is something many of us would like to do to the low life free loaders! NX should give an annual travelcard for helping them with revenue!!

Most buses should be limited to 30mph or have the limits set by gps, it is not beyond technology. Then we will see how many services have impossible running times!

I think most days there are bus conflicts with the shelters and mirrors it is a common sight to see a driver adjusting the mirror arm after it has brushed the stand.

Is Merry Hill the worst station in the UK? Surely they could make a raised drop off point.
