Up this way in Fife, I've noticed that cameras mounted on the front of
the drivers dash are becoming more commonplace. Presumably they
continously record the last 30 seconds or so of the journey. However
it galls me that selfish car drivers park in bus stops inconvienencing
the bus and passenger. Pity legislation couldn't be passed for the
camera to record the reg of the cars and issue them with a parking
ticket.
Just a thought.

I think thats for cameras that record inside the bus isnt it? On that
subject though, they're only good if a human is watching so the crime
can be reported instantly.

Are they bus lane cameras?

What is a bus lane? Oh, of course the root of all traffic congestion.

nope, these are little darkened dome shape cameras fitted into the
front of the bus drivers dash and record the forward view.
this place is too small for bus lanes (thankfully)

It will happen here one day I guess. Fife Council and common sense are
diametricaly opposite each other.

I wish bus drivers would use the stops in place for them instead of
parking at 45 degrees blocking the road and causing congestion.
