    Yutong Coach Crash in IoW

    Air brakes are designed to lock on failure…no air. They lock on. Maybe someone didn’t lock on the brake handle….be amazed if brake system totally failed (the wonderful often amazes us though)

    "Homeless" person removed from Megabus in the middle of the night

    Speak to him. Treat him as a human, not a inconvenience. Well done to the person who gave him help to shower and eat. Maybe if more people selflessly gave than scorned and judged, then he’d be in a better place. I’d hope someone was there to help me rather than eject me

    "Homeless" person removed from Megabus in the middle of the night

    I think it’s incredibly sad that so many think that to reject someone is right. However unconfortable it is for others, just stop and consider how uncomfortable it is for him! Kick him while he’s down.... ...or show some compassion!
