Compulsory vs Request stops
Wilton St stop in London is a red roundel on a white background and that
always meant a compulsory stop. A request stop was always a white roundel on a red background. Has that changed? I ask because it seemed to me that the only way you guarantee a bus to stop was by raising your hand. I watched one man move to the stop (from his waiting place in the set-back shelter) as his bus approached and then look surprised as it accelerated away (it wasn't full). Almost everyone felt the need to raise a hand to hail the bus. To be fair, some buses were already indicating to stop before the hand was raised but I got the definite impression that a compulsory stop wasn't compulsory. |
