Constant anouncements on London Buses
wrote ...
I have noticed on several occasions that drivers seem to slam the brakes way too hard, particularly on double deckers as people are coming down the stairs. I doubt the two are connected. There are (of course), some bad drivers, but most of the excessive breaking is due to other road users not seeing a large moving object. Cyclists and pedestrians do their share, but I never fail to be amazed at the sheer bad manners of car drivers coming out of side roads - or changing lanes - knowing that the bus driver has good brakes - and has to use them. I either read a book on a bus - or sit at the front upstairs and pretend to be a tourist; I see idiots in front of the bus on a daily basis. -- Andrew "She plays the tuba.
