I can't see how you read it that way. We have a bus that is getting
late. So the bus IN FRONT of it is slowed down.


Making it, umm, late as well. Not sure I like that one.

Better is to make sure the timetable works in the first place. Except
when special events are taking place, or major roadworks, or whatever
(in which case extras need to be added to the service), heavy loading
is inherently predictable. If this is happening all the time, the
timetable is faulty.
