Yes and I have seen the exact opposite happy - bell rung twice, in good
time for the stop, and the bus drives straight past and the driver
alleges not hearing the bell.

That's easily solved with a light next to the driver that comes on as
soon as someone rings a bell, saying "STOPPING". All my local buses have
one.
