Bus Safety
Travelling around Worcestershire by bus offers a convenient,
efficient and sustainable way to travel. Following a few important
safety tips can ensure that this is a safe and pleasant experience
for all:
- When waiting for the bus, stand away from the kerb
- Signal clearly to the driver to stop, but stay on the
pavement
- Do not distract the driver in any way while the bus is
moving
- Use seatbelts where these are provided
- If you have to cross the road after getting off the bus, always
allow the bus to move off before attempting to cross. Always use
the green cross code
- As a driver, when overtaking a stationery bus, be aware that
children may cross the road
- Remember that buses in a dedicated bus lane may be travelling
faster than other traffic or even in the opposite direction
Be safe on the bus
