On the buses

Rest day today and a bit extra work. All helps after Christmas!! Drove the coach from Street to Bath. Bit wet and kept on my toes informing the passengers about seat belts. Handed the coach over at Bath and had four hours on the 10's. That was fun as the fares went up today. Home now and enjoying a few beers (not working tomorrow)

Not the best day

Enough has been said about recent events. As a driver I has always told passengers to wear their seatbelts and given information on vehicle safety.

However it is serious events like this it is important to LISTEN TO THE DRIVER.

And, to end just a few points.

Latest CPT figures show the number of fatalities, per one billion passenger kilometres travelled, is 17 for buses and coaches, 37 for cars and 1,500 for motorcycles.

Under government regulations, coach operators have to notify passengers to use the belts, though it is the duty of individual passengers aged over 14 - and not drivers or operators - to ensure they use them.

Same old problems

Not much to report apart from.

The middle lane hoggers.

Women drivers not using lane 3

Mobile phone users.

And many more. Will not be posting until the New year so happy New Year.
