I am all for bus stops having signs that have a button to speak the upcoming arrivals (and they are already in use around the world, but as usual we're quite far behind and still seem to be happy to just 'trial' them at select locations as if they're not already proven technology) but having a button on a bus would be ridiculous.
For one, does the visually impaired passenger need to stay near the button? Or would there be loads of buttons on the bus? If someone needs to use it and presses more than once (as would likely be needed to keep updated on where they are and where's next), where's the dignity when another passenger (perhaps one of the selfish people on here against things to aid those with disabilities) asks them to stop pressing the button because it annoys them?

Yes, it's very sad. Far too many self-centred people in society in general unfortunately. Let's hope none of them ever find themselves in need of any of these accessible features in their later lives - or someone they care about.
