Boris admits bendy-buses are safe - but he'll axe them anyway

Quite frankly I tend to find (not here, but in general) that a lot of the criticism the bendies get comes from people who've never even been on one (let alone used them regularly), So the views of these people don't count then? I've never been on a bendy bus, and pretty much never choose to travel on buses (despite getting free travel on them). I have, however, on many occasions come out of an Underground station and been unable to cross a road because a bendy bus is blocking the road, or had a road journey (by bicycle or car) take longer because of congestion caused by these hideous things. I have also witnessed safety-related incidents where the traffic movements caused by bendy buses has posed a danger to cyclists and pedestrians. But, of course, my views don't count because I've never been on a bendy bus. |
