"Ticket inspectors operate on this bus" (I think I've only ever heard
it on bendies)


How about *"A ticket check is about to commence, please have your
{tickets and passes ready for inspection}"

On a 411, single decker, at 1604 Saturday 13th Sept '08.

Nothing whatever happened.

I've heard that too, only a ticket check did commence.

I've just remembered the most annoying bus announcement, and it's not
iBus.

I think it's Route 133 to/from Liverpool Street. When someone presses
the bell to get off, this loud, asthmatic alarm sound starts, with a
stilted 'Bus. Stopping. At. Next. Bus. Stop. Please. Stand. (Well.?)
Clear. Of. Doors'.

Every single stop. For the entire journey.
