hogmaw Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 I always thought this was a pain in the ass. In fact it is, even if the following article makes complete sense: http://www.cbrd.co.uk/indepth/m4buslane/ Sometimes I wonder what the point is living in London with a Supra. But then when I get in the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 That does make sense, but it's still the most pointless traffic-jam "reducing" scheme in the country! I've only driven down it a couple of times, but I didn't see a single bus using it. A few taxis, but that was it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 Yes that is the only flaw, if anything it should be an HOV lane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveK Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Bus lanes in general are a stupid idea. Buses are for poor people who don't have jobs and can't afford cars. They are the last people that actually need to get somewhere on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although why I'm going to work when clearly I don't have a job I don't know. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanchan Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 If I could get a reliable bus to work that dropped me off at a sociable time before I had to start, then I would and I could then sell my daily drive and spend the money on the Supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
