So, you're actively looking for buses that struggle? I'd suggest any of Arriva's NE buses when they encounter any hilly route.

Well, let's never have anything nice then as clearly we've been defeated and these feral children are out causing havoc all day every day! I'm just still shocked that the ASB stops at age 16 in Manchester, certainly when I lived in Manchester and Liverpool in the early 2000s and in the places...

I would suggest tackling the causes of anti social behaviour, rather than just not allowing any kids to benefit from free travel due to a SMALL minority. If ASB is occuring on particuar routes have those routes patrolled by security officiers/police to ensure that drivers and the public feel...

And yet we've countless messages on here pre-free scheme of drivers moaning about anti-social behaviour on buses. I'm not disputing your experience, it is only natural that your views would be tainted by the experiences you have, but I feel that they may be isolated to the routes that you're...

But - as has been said above - you cannot force a person to use a smartphone. Just because they're ubiquitous the regulations state that it cannot be via the passenger's device.

I remember working in retail, plenty of people are literally phoning in their job all day long... I mean, it was a long time ago (cigarettes were still 16+) but it was hard enough to get them to even check ID for them. But maybe things have changed and retail staff are actually more on the ball...

Yes, reviewed it a few months back. It's basic but for the price it's not bad. Has AC which is a massive bonus but windows don't open so needs it. Bed is really thin and uncomfortable but otherwise it's a good hotel. I've used it a few times as sometimes work nearby and I've had it for prices as...

Tracker on a phone also works for unsighted passengers (text to speech exists) - however this all requires on these passengers having a smart phone, there being signal and them wanting to use it. The regulations state that it should be the service providers responsibility to provide the NSA -...

In fairness I've picked up a 0% cider a few times when trying to get an alcoholic one, they do look incredibly similar, so I can easily imagine a disinterested cashier easily not noticing which is which.

Maybe for someone who travels a lot, but for those who don't travel much or have poor spatial awareness (or again when it's dark outside) it's quite hard to know where you are. Also, just by entering the town, unless you've noticed the sign as you drive by how will you know what town it is?

The one near the station (next to the Tenpin bowling) or the Hub one just up from the station. They're very different experiences when I've used them!

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c2k7e7zwxvyo The fall out from the issues continues.. the CEO has now left, not sure why the link above won't unfurl to give a quote?

Which is only helpful if you know where you are and that it's light!

If it's M&S, I can well believe that there are people that can't walk that half mile. Their demographic definitely skews more elderly. The 87 is pretty good for those in South Wigston wanting to get to Fosse Park as the Orbital doesn't call in South Wigston. Although rather crazily at the same...

It wouldn't be difficult and fine for most, but useless to someone who cannot hear.

I think around June, as that was the first time it was mentioned in this thread.

Be nice to see Yuki back on the grid... but surprised Liam isn't having flashbacks from his time at RBR. Let's hope this weekend goes well for him.

It's never been about making things better, it's about it being a better solution for those in charge.

That's not surprising though, they see mainly the negative aspects. However, there have also been those in the thread where they've had positive interactions with young people. I think what this thread goes to show is that many have a negative opinion of young people in general - people...

It does appear to be the UK coach network that is struggling, compared to the rest of Mobico based on what I can see: "The group as a whole, which provides coach, bus and rail services in Europe, the United States, North Africa, and the Middle East, reported adjusted revenue increasing by 5.9%...
