You're certain that there was no bike courier, white van, or other oik
in the bus stop? Absolutely 100% certain? And I bet traffic would
have flowed better if it was a Routemaster - they don't have to stop
for so long.


Although Routemasters have the advantage of being able to alight and
board whilst in slow moving traffic, are dwell times at stops really
less than a dual or tri door bus? To me it seems a double deck or
bendy spends less time at stops.
