A minion of Ken says:
"Many London bus routes, including conventional double-decker, travel
through much quieter, more residential areas, and so comparing
accident statistics for articulated or 'bendy' buses with figures for
the London bus network as a whole is not contrasting like with like."

Which seems a fair point.


It is, but TFL have the statistics per route, so why didn't they rebuff on
a like for like basis instead of using that generalised cop-out statement?
