RULES ? * Europe - EU forces passengers on and off the buses

The law has been described as a "farce"

London,UK -The Telegraph, by Lucy Cockcroft -25 Mar 2008: -- Bus passengers who travel along a route of more than 30 miles must get off the vehicle midway through their journey to comply with new EU laws... The Brussels ruling dictates that drivers must pull over and let everyone off their bus after 30 miles, to ensure they do not spend too long behind the wheel... By example, from Newquay to Plymouth route has been split in three, even though a single driver is used for the entire distance... The driver is obliged to pull over and ask everyone to get off before the route number on the front of the vehicle is changed, and all the passengers are invited back on board... Passengers have been told they must buy three tickets to complete the route, and they must also break their journey twice... (EN: What it's this?...)
