The footage of the riots shows that some or all London buses now
have identifiers writ large on the roof, presumably so they can be
identified by helicopter. Does anyone know the purpose of this,


Um, so they can be identified by helicopter, perhaps :-(


In case the helicopter has a passenger who desperately wants to catch a
particular bus?


Or if the air ambulance or police helicopter needs to find a particular
bus?
