[color=#000000ost_uid0]Kinda like the bus in adelaide that got hit by a train, or the two boys from my school who hit a tree.
All vehicles can be twisted against the user.
As they say, 'He who lives for speed, dies for speed.'
Don't they know they're not supposed to stop on the train tracks? Pointless deaths.

A minutes silence for all those who've died travelling.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]What reason could you possibly have for disliking buses?[/quoteost_uid0]

The fact that they're noisy rattletraps? Or the fact that they're patronised by people to whom "soap" is a four letter word? Or the fact that the bus from Kelowna to Vancouver stops at every two-bit town from Hope onwards? Or the fact that they're full of screaming kids?

No, wait, the screaming kids are only in supermarkets.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I guess I can now feel superior about the UK having a better bus system now too. I almost said 'public transport', but then that requires me to factor in the trains, at which point the statment just becomes a blatant lie.[/colorost_uid0]

Honest, happened to me once when I was a kid. Out with my parents, heard weird rattles, looked out of window and saw engine parts bouncing on the road behind.

Dumb Bus.[/colorost_uid0]

Really? I was in a school bus that the altenator fell out of once. It was a geriatric double decker seemingly held together with old chewing gum. The driver was a bit of a grumpy guy too. And I left my shoes on it once, but that's another story. There was also one incident on Lewis (when I lived outside of Stornoway) when a bus got blown into a ditch just down the road from my house. Tells you something about how bad the wind can get up there.[/colorost_uid0]
