.....another bus involved in an accident. Like I have said in the past, public transport is responsible for more accidents than any other modes of transport category, when adjusted for percentage of vehicles in each category. Time to scrap public transport....too dangerous and too unreliable.


Great try

Nearly got rid of an inappropriately located pedestrian crossing, and nearly destroyed a bus powered by coal fire.

Funny I can't find any facts to back up the claims you seem to be pulling out of thin air... Also there are a ton of people that rely on public transport everyday to get around, are you offering to give them all a lift if it all goes away?

User pays sounds fair. I don't use it. 99.999% of TGA doesn't use it. (These are official statistics as well =D ).

I'm more than happy for my taxes/rates to be spent on services like this that benefit the community - whether I use those services or not
