Vandalism on buses really does boil my urine. I was on 7522 a couple months ago with my mam, and there was Biro pen markings on the stitching, the "Sapphire" logo. Almost all Sapphire E400s that I've been on have had the rubber around the window etched with patterns and names. Never mind a 14-reg vehicle with names etched into the back of seats and the back of the staircase. At Ashington bus station, all the shelters have "Mick luv lenne" scratched into the black paint, with poor stand D with "COCK" in large writing on the exterior. Bus operators need to enforce strict rules onto this sort of vandalism, it's disgusting how SNE and Arriva can let people of for doing this. Stagecoach's contribution is stick an advert on the interior about vandalism and how they'll prosecute people etc, but the window that I was sitting next to had various private objects etched into them.
Also litter, I'm not tarring all bus pass holders but, seriously, just because you get the bus for free doesn't mean you can scatter various bus tickets on floors of buses and bus stops.
Also, the Phoenix driver who has been on the 30 some times thinks its fine to drive with the doors open at speed. What a pillock.
