Passangers & Drivers

[Liverpool Street]

While travelling on a new Enviro on the 900 this morning the deafening air conditioning came on.
I usually hate it but it drowned out a phone conversation a fellow passenger had from Coventry until they got off at Yardley. >:(
Every cloud has a silver lining full marks to the driver if he switched it on.
He didn't hang around either one of the best rides I've had on the 900 since the days of Lynxes years ago.  ;)

So do you passengers like to be driven fast?

The Enviros are more civilised than blasting along in a Trident unable to see out of front due to a handrail across your line of of vision upstairs. :)
I fondly remember back in the mid 80s when I used to catch finishing buses back to Birmingham, usually Metrobuses but once caught a Fleetline.

Definitely!!! And yeah agree about that stupid handrail-the alx400s are horrid to be honest in general

Been out in the real world this week.
As the Trident I was on left a bus stop it ground to a halt.
A yob who had just got off opened the bonnet and pushed the engine emergency stop button at....
Chelmsley Wood shopping centre on a 14.

BusUser79 don't shoot the messenger, but it has happened to me to me before in other places e.g. Coventry about the time of the riots.
If I Said Something every time I saw Something I could double the statistics but would it change passengers behaviour. I doubt it!

[PM]

To be fair, Im not going to slag off areas like chelmsley wood cos this is a problem in all our towns and cities. We need to accept it and take action not deny it doesnt happen and that it happens more in certain areas which is a FACT.

The problem is this damn politically correct country, if you could whollop a kid then I bet a lot of this trouble would disperse. Oh, but go ahead and shout me down for being against this system. Maybe when Sharia Law takes hold of this country then the trouble might subside...

I know the trouble has always been there but damn, it seems to have ballooned recently. Doesn't help the population forever booming either.. maybe its linked.

Whats your opinion on National Service?

Bit of food for thought there.

I don't think drivers have control of when the air conditioning comes on and off

[mranon]

Think its stupid how people think they are clever by either damaging buses or switching them off. Thet are the type too that would claim if they hurt themselves. One bit of loose clothing caught in the pulleys ouch.

Or try to open doors early when the driver can just hold the doors close button then they cant get off the bus and get more and more cross!!

Drivers have control over the 'black fans' found inside the cab (: seen several drivers turn them on an off, not sure about Air Con though

Well in Enviro400s I'm pretty sure drivers have no control over the fans. And no NXWM buses have air con, as if they'd splash out on that luxury!
