As the bus goes through Dundle, I noticed a very unusual thing. The road obviously gets quite narrow, making it not particularly safe for two vehicles to pass (especially if one is a double decker bus) but the idea of having a traffic light either side and a line for the traffic to wait is a very sensible approach. I have saw this once or twice, as I say it's a sensible and safe measure and is useful when you have old market towns like this.
It's a good idea, I think the bus drivers do very well navigating the narrow roads in towns or countryside. They have my respect. Thank you for watching and commenting
There are always challenges when making these videos. Some challenges can be seen through the videos others the viewer will never know. I rarely get a smooth day out filming. Thank you for watching and commenting.
I have noticed a significant difference in the style of driving between bus drivers in the Southern counties of England and most of them in the rest of the UK and that is your bus drivers down South seem to be much more aggressive and in a rush. If a traffic light is in the process of changing the driver from South England is much more willing to keep on going rather than taking the safer option to stop. I don't really care what their excuses or reasons are, it's quite frankly a very selfish and dangerous attitude and they don't really deserve to remain in their job.
Most buses of this type do, but still it's a roof over your head and a very beautiful day for a bus journey. And I am afraid that you misinterpret the use of the word "Gold" - I wouldn't really read too much into it if I were you.
A very beautiful day for a bus journey.
It was, thank you for your comment

Blurry focus- plus an attack of the twitchies from 10: 00 on wards. Otherwise nice day, nice trip. Tx.

That's an interesting observation. I will pay attention when riding in different regions. Thank you for your comment
Considering this is a 'gold' bus, it rattles a lot!
The bus has done some trips, it's understandable. Thank you for your comment
