I think that's the problem then. As enthusiasts we don't see all this stuff, but when I became a driver, it opens your eyes more, and you obviously see more.
both mw and me work at different garages and have described exactly the same standard of driving on different routes
Funny that

Not seeing what grs got up to on 246 is a bit like the traffic wardens not seeing all the illegal parked cars in brierley hill high street

So an nx 141 parked even though he was running late for 5 minutes until a nx 99 could not get past then decided to move off causing the 4H to be late

The thing with grs is he did show a lot of promise but some of the things he's been doing since starting the 11 are really bad. I mean he went for more than a week without running a single bus. His buses are seldom on time when they do run & one driver spent his entire shift one day running just in front of a social travel bus. Even had his break at the same time in bearwood instead of Acocks green.

No need to be so rude. I hope your not one of the many arrogant pensnett drivers.
The 141 to merry hill was blocking the 4H from getting into the stand for Walsall. But then the 99 could not get around the 4H because there wasn't enough room, so he saw and moved off stand

No one mentioned grs waiting on double yellow lines in king street Dudley waiting for an NX 246 to get to the traffic lights at vicar street and then moving off in front of it, or the fact they used to miss the hospital out.

I've seen diamond driver driving in merry hill bus station using a phone centro saw him said nothing 
Hansons drivers drive round bus station with doors open centro say nothing
We have a 3 minute open door policy at merry hill other operators are regularly parked on stand 5 minutes centro say nothing
I've seen hansons and diamond double park and load up centro say nothing

I don't see the problem with this? Hansons leave the middle bit of the bus station at :05 and :35 mainly because it takes them 5 minutes to get round onto the stand with the x96 blocking all the buses

Thats not a issue no more, the bus station had the railings moved back last month to enable the X96/208/243 to get closer to the stand therefore not blocking buses trying to get to stand B and A

they should run to time then instead if keep waiting for the nx 4H and some 141 do have drop back at Halesowen
