Some Stats about Bus Routes with the moat amount of Crime reported on assuming the normal 11 is the PN11 between Walsall and Dudley which has more Crime than the outer Circle, the WN59 is fourth and a surprising inclusion is the WA37 assuming they don't mean the 37 that is now the 4 in Birmingham. That is I think seventh,

If any of the Darlaston routes would have have crime I would have maybe expected the 34 going through Rough Hag although it has calmed down a lot over recent years there is still people getting robbed down there. But the 37 does pass through Bentley and Lodge Farm I guess and deals with the Willenhall Comp Kids who used to cause issues on the Thandi 37.

Not included are the WA29, WB80/87/82 heard they can be bad, WN11 as it passes through Underhill, WA51/X51 that used to be bad from what I can remember more the 51 than the X51

Any other routes people are surprised not to see on the list




The Outer Circle 11 at AG. 
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

Looks like 4539 has had an engine fire.

Wondering why it was withdrawn due to engine bay damage on bus times now I know why.

4523 pulled out of the stand to the right of Stand J while 40714 was driving around 4523 and they collided with 40714's side being hit and 4523's front right light housing damaged

If the above is "true", does this mean the Safer Travel Team will be more visible?

E295 just collided with a car on penns lane Sutton Coldfield 

BrumKev86

First West of England Bus (33832) has collided with a railway bridge in Twerton, Bath causing extensive damage to the bus. Emergency services on scene but says in the article the bus was returning to depot so hopefully was running empty. Trains still running on the line above.

6956 is parked up on Bath row, seems like somebody experienced a medical incident as an ambulance pulled up as I was being driving past. Hopefully they're okay.
