I immediately rang London Buses, once I was released from my mobile

driver in your case was wrong.

Interesting. Is that a Central London thing?

It's a rule applicable to TfL services - this is the only context that
my comments should be applied to. The explanation came from another bus
based discussion group.

I have no idea what policy exists for other companies. I would have
naively assumed that being profit seeking companies they would adopt the
most customer friendly option but your example suggests otherwise.
