Back to topic... My -opinion- is that it is socially unacceptable to have the baby changed on the bus. Lack of privacy, for example.

There's a chap known by most AG and YW drivers. He catches the bus and literally takes a shit on the seat and then gets off. No idea if he's disabled or not. This was a few years ago.

The company banned someone with a disability pass from their vehicles in Walsall because of similar problems. It can be done

It's either a case of changing the baby discretely whilst on the bus or the whole bus putting up with a screaming baby for the rest of the journey due to a filled nappy. The lack of privacy is at the mothers discretion, babies need changing as/when required they don't empty themselves on demand

And then there is the question, should a mother breast feed a baby on a bus?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Why not done discretely.... other passengers eat on the bus

Fair comment @Winston , but personally if a woman started to do it sat next to me i would feel very awkward!

I asked our inspector the company policy on breast feeding after i received a complaint, he asked management and is awaiting an answer

I'm all for breastfeeding... At the end of the day it's natural, and most women cover up whilst doing it. As long as it doesn't directly affect people I don't see how they can moan. If they feel uncomfortable look away or at they're phones.

If two homosexuals can kiss freely on a bus then a woman breastfeeding her child isn't an issue.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

And so homosexual's should be able to kiss on a bus, or anywhere else for that matter, love is love.

No! That was not my view! I thought she was completely correct to do it! @fleetline6477

My apologies to you Dom, I can see reading your post again that you were expressing the opinion of your friend.

No problem dude. I think its completely within her own right and that my friends opinion was infact quite snobby.

Everyone is entitled to have their own opinion. If you think that the friend's opinion is snobby then basically tough shit. :)
