This would discourage anyone who feels like they are going to be sick from travelling by bus. Really, it's quite inconsiderate.
So hang on a £30 fine? What about people who suffer from motion sickness, the heat from behind the windows (open or not) etc...they should be fined. If that was a case people with motion sickness would be house bound.
People can't help if they are sick, drunks don't have control over their body systems either if some of you are old enough to have had a night out would understand. The bus would have to come off anyway to be cleaned so really what disruption, you want a clean bus don't you? If a spare bus can be put out to transfer passengers to the destination the mileage, which is most important is not being lost! Time can be gained back while that bus is out and cleaned to which can be put to point A for the spare bus to transfer passengers which takes 2-3minutes at that?
